Close to home ...

I'm unbelievably pissed about Monday's fatal shooting at an Amish school in nearby Lancaster County, Pa. But somehow it doesn't seem right to write a hate-filled post when the Amish themselves -- a non-violent and loving people -- would be against that. The Amish may right now be reaching out to offer help to the family of the very man who shot and killed at least three young Amish girls before killing himself. It's just so overwhelmingly sad. Especially when paired with the Sept. 27 shooting in Colorado in which a 53-year-old man took six girls hostage at a high school and sexually assaulted them before fatally shooting one girl and killing himself.
