We feel pain and sorrow for people we didn't even know. It's nearly impossible not to look at the photos of all those smiling faces and weep at their loss.Trish Milburnhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08812010789617982102noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-18101458.post-71655430247690601372007-04-21T06:22:00.000-05:002007-04-21T06:22:00.000-05:00As the mother of two college students on two diffe...As the mother of two college students on two different campuses in two different states, this tragedy hit close to home, too. We worry about our kids when they're away from home, but we shouldn't have to worry about them when they're in their classroooms.<BR/><BR/>My heart goes out to the families of those killed. Beautiful kids with promising futures, loving families--all gone at the hands of a madman.Tori Scotthttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02514585159442285006noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-18101458.post-18145359758607010982007-04-20T20:55:00.000-05:002007-04-20T20:55:00.000-05:00Thank you for the post, Diane, (and the link to th...Thank you for the post, Diane, (and the link to the article) and your comment Theresa.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-18101458.post-81705611623400053922007-04-20T10:50:00.000-05:002007-04-20T10:50:00.000-05:00I agree, Theresa!

Maybe finally some of their practices will change because of this.Diane Gastonhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14770373530197339170noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-18101458.post-48415811292034831882007-04-20T09:00:00.000-05:002007-04-20T09:00:00.000-05:00I refuse to spend one second reading about or watc...I refuse to spend one second reading about or watching the killer on t.v. <BR/><BR/>What a waste of lives. I am only going to read about and remember the victims. What wonderful people we lost. Sweet, caring, ambitious. I know other things need to be discussed to prevent these events from happening in the future, but other than that, I wish the news would focus only on the good things these people did while they were alive and let the professionals figure out the rest, like why the guy did what he did.<BR/><BR/>My thoughts and prayers go out to the parents and friends of all the people we lost.Theresa Raganhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15815320170046221853noreply@blogger.com
