Rampage Shootout In Connecticut

It is really devastating when I read today's highlight on the shooting rampage that happened in this quiet and peaceful Newtown in Connecticut, the worst mass shootings in U.S. history.  Really saddening especially when the lives taken were of twenty school children, poor innocent lives of these kids who had not really understand the cruelty of the world today.

Imagine the anguish and the trauma of the victims' families, the parents, the siblings... never would one expect that the next minute, their love ones are not around anymore... it is indeed the worst nightmare one can ever want to think of.....
Even when we are worlds apart, many of us share the anguish and the tears for these poor kids and their families...

Consolation and comfort is most needed now...
The question is... how to avoid such incidents from happening, it can be anywhere.... is it the society's fault?  Or is it the emotional stress that cause this to happen?

In a moving speech by Monsignor Robert Weiss, he was quoted as saying this...
"Life has changed forever in Newtown... we have 20 new saints today... we have 20 beautiful angels."

God bless these little angels who have gone to join Him....
