If you live in America then you have all seen the tragedy unfold. You have seen the people in shock as they tell the horror story of what happened in Colorado. 12 dead 59 wounded. I will never understand the pain these people are feeling but I watch and pray to my God that they may find peace once more. When the Twin Towers fell I remember watching that and thought who would even think of doing something so destructive. Now I watch the news tonight and those same thoughts come back to haunt me. As I'm listening to how these people were trapped and hunted down I think what kind of person could feel no emotion to do this to so many. The only thing I could do as I watched was explain to my children what was happening. I answered there questions, I tried to make it a learning experience. My son said mom I don't think I ever want to go to the movies again. I understood how he felt. Then the mom in me had to kick into overdrive because honestly after seeing this I don't want him to go. However I said my most rational thought. I said you can't let others put fear in you. Don't let someone make you stop what you enjoy doing because they win. I tried to make myself believe in the words I was saying to him . I really did but God never in my life did I want to hug my child and not let go of him. I just honestly wanted to say please say your prayers tonight, hug your loved one, and be grateful. That's all we can really do when these things happen.
I use to think I wish our government would hurry up and make online gambling happen, now I'm thinking I wish our government would do something about these dam people who are able to get guns and kill.
