Illinois people

Last night when we heard on the news about the tragic shootings at the University, I thought about you. I was hoping no one you knew was affected. So, let us know if you were or not affected. I sincerely hope we get only good posts from this. It is so baffling to me why people who feel desperate, angry enough, whatever enough to kill, let alone multiple killings, actually do these things. (yes, I know, poor poor sentence structure, but oh well) What must be going through a person's mind to make them say, "Today is the day I'm going to this school, kill or hurt as many people I can, then shoot myself." I have such an odd feeling over this one. Not like the Virginia Tech thing; I cried on that one. This one is a tragedy, too, but it's, I don't know, just different to me. It gives me a sense that my world is not as safe as I would like to think it is. I mean, I'm not afraid, but I guess I should lock my car doors while I'm driving or not say hi to strangers as I walk past. Y'know? OR is it my drugs haven't kicked in today????

I could not believe it either!! Such a shock and tragedy. Everyone I knew that went there is safe and accounted for!! My prayers are with the families of the victims

I can not believe how horrible things are just happening everywhere lately. Thank you for checking in with us. The closest I know is someone who knows someone who knows someone. I am just sick for all of these families going through this. Have a good weekend
