1. There is no greater loss, nor a worse time of the year to suffer that loss!

I lost my 3 1/2 year old on 12/21/1993, and though I can enjoy the Christmas season again, I will always wonder about what might have been. The parents agony, yes agony, will have to run its course. These parents should not have had to suffer, nor these children and brave educators have had to die, just so others can blast away longer w/o reloading, not have to wait long or pass stringent background checks... to get an assault weapon. Maybe we should remove kids from families for a month while they pass a cooling off period to get their AR-15! Just saying! My heart goes out to all of those poor families. You cannot imagine the hell. My marriage did not survive it!
