Shootings

What in the world is going on, I open my laptop this AM only to find another random killing spree involving family. Yesterday is was the same thing when a boy in the Boston area, kills his 17 year old sister and decapitates his 5 year old sister on her birthday none the less, before police arive and shoot him to death. Now this morning news headlines reveal another killing spree in Santa Clara CA. "6 members of family dead in murder-suicide" This time a man turned on his own family including 3 children and an infant. This sparked my interest to do a quick news search only to find more killings, this time in FLorida. Quick news flash 1 hour 28 minutes ago "3 dead, 1 injured in possible Fla. murder-suicide" What has happened to our society when brothers decapitate thier 5 YO sister? Or when a man kills his infant child. I know the stress of our country is high with a poor economy, high unemployment rates and general mistrust of our leaders, but to turn on your own family. Isn't it our families we are supposed to fall back on for support? when no one else will listen or understand? It never fails to amaze me the media circus that transpires after one of these horrible incidents. Its almost like we feed upon news like this, like a hungry pack of wolves. Im not sure who is worse, the news media covering it or us for being glued to our boob tunes listening and watching for more, more and even more gore. Then we will have to hear more about it and maybe even se a trial with the ever so "Im the smartest person in the world" Nancy Grace, jeez I can't stand that bitch. I've never met anyone who knows everything, but she sure try's doesn't she. Then a few months down the road, one of those sick novel writers will scribble a few lines and make millions from a book, all for us to keep the excitement alive. I for one cannot stand to see it, or hear it anymore. Lets get back to the old days, when someone does this type of act, gets taken to the middle ot town square and is hung for all to see. No News media, no books, just punishment for his actions. I for one will be ignoring all the hype and will walk my ass over to my church on sunday and continue to pray that the good Lord will come and put an end to all of our suffering.
