I think you're right, Mirjam. More and more darkness as each year passes,
it seems. And it sure seems to be escalating. No place is really, truly
safe.

Mirjam -- when I first saw you rmessage (after breaking the fast,
without having seen any news) my first reaction was "there are Amish
schools in Israel??" Now, of course, it's in the newspapers and I see
the real story. I live in Denver, Colorado, so our papers are still
full of stories about the Bailey shooting, which seems to have inspired
this one. Sigh. Wishes for "a sweet year" seem a little beside the
point after news like this -- let's just wish for a year of sanity and
safety.

It was SO awful, Mirjam! Such gentle peaceful people, the Amish and
Mennonites, to be subjected to this. This was the third school
shooting 'incident' in a week.... horrendous!

Jackie... my deepest grief over the Bailey shooting, and next the
Wisconsin shooting, too.
The Pennsylvania shooting reeled me to the floor...

I felt awful when I heard about the Amish school shootings. Those poor,
gentle souls having to put up with all the media on top of their grief.

What gets me is all these wackos family and friends say the same
thing......they were wonderful husbands and fathers.....someone missed
something along the way IMO.

very seldom do people speak ill of the dead, especially
related people.
if they were to say that "yes, he was a little strange", or
"yes, he was terribly depressed & angry", then they make
themselves responsible for what happened, by failing to get
help for the person. it removes all personal culpability to
say that they didn't see anything odd beforehand, that he was
a wonderful person.
