What a horrible day for her! Tell her my thoughts and prayers are with her!

I listened to part of the memorial service in my car today. The roll call at the end was heartbreaking.

They are reporting now that the shooter may be paralyzed from the waist down. Can I get an "awwwwwwww that's too bad." No? Not from me, either.

Now the lack of feeling in his legs matches the lack of feeling in his heart, IMO.

He was already paralized from the neck up.


What I don't get are all the fool people out there that go on about "he was such a nice guy", "he was normal" and "he was never in any trouble". Same thing happened after they arrested the guy in Dallas that wanted to blow up the building. HELLO!!! These people don't start out as your average street thug stealing hubcaps and tagging bridges and then jump to wanting to blow up buildings and kill Americans all in the name of a jihad. They go about their daily life working and worshiping whatever god they have and all along having thoughts of destruction against those that don't believe the same as them. They are SILENT and try to "fit in" or be "normal" so as not to draw attention to themselves. THEN they attack. We will never learn.........

Well you have to see it from their perspective; this is someone they were close with and it's hard to always accept the fact that someone you though you knew so well could do something so horrific.

Too bad someone didn't tweak his IV line while he was in the hospital. Son of Allah, my patoot.

"We will never learn...."......what exactly???

The lesson here is that anyone can go on a murderous rampage. That goes for any race, creed, color, gender or religious affiliation.

When BTK was apprehended did you say the same thing? BTK appeared "normal" as well. He was an average Caucasian male, middle aged who had a job in a factory and belonged to the Lutheran church.

People kill people for all sorts of reasons, typically unjustly. If one guy shoots up his place of business in the name of his personal God does that make it any different than a guy who shoots up his place of business because he was recently laid off?

Fear mongering...sad.
