I wanted to write something re: the 'events' of the day...but honestly I am far too upset from the film I saw earlier at Silver Docs.
To quote the movie, "Foo-Foo Dust"....
"I never thought something would be powerful enough to break apart a mother/ son relationship until we started using drugs."
Mother/ son drug addicts!
And the 12-year old who went to school with guns today? The administrator who was ARRESTED because they had "prior" knowledge?
The 17-year old who shot herself in the head with a starter pistol?
The beheading of an American contractor? To NWA: perhaps me quoting Stalin am not "original", but you must admit that his words are quite telling.
"A single death is a tragedy, a million deaths are a statistic."
I think the reason why they are so contemporary even today is because the reality of human existence hasn’t changed.
God save us all.

oh, i'm real clear on the truth of the Stalin quote, I see it every day here in Washington DC.
Why just last week we gave Ronald Wilson Reagan a hero's send off, and this is after the man and his policies killed off at least as many of his fellow citizens, (notice how many less homeless there are on the streets than there were 15 years ago?), as Hitler killed jewish people, and just because he used the streets and not the ovens, and didn't get as far as making lampshades and soap out of them, this makes it OK and something we pass over in silence?
I'm just saying... you may not want to believe the hype.
