Every morning, while in the car I listen to the news and hear reports about people being killed and family's dying in fire's. Twenty years ago this would have been talked about for months on end.

In this modern age, we are bombarded with more information than we can ever process, our time is limited, and our attention spans are short. I think crimes get more media coverage today then they ever did. If people are talking amonst themselves less, its probaboy because of media overkill and the internet.
Death is final death is absolute. There is nothing we can do except bury dead. Once one is dead we are dead. We cannot unscramble the DEAD

This is scary. Rest in Peace to all the dead and I hope their families deal with this in the best way they can.This is really odd having 2 or 3 shooters, wearing military uniforms. Could this be terrorists??
