On Everyone's Minds


It doesn't seem right or easy to carry on with our Christmassy feelings when so many are grieving for the awful loss of life in such a violent setting.  Facebook posts, talk on the street are all about the tragedy in Connecticut.  Soon people will be saying 'life goes on' but let's hope it's a different life that goes on - one where maybe finally, possession of these deadly weapons is treated with much more scrutiny.  A committed effort for that to happen would be a Christmas gift worth having. 

No Time for Emotions, Let's Talk About Gun Control
is the headline in the Huffington Post.
'But what exactly is so "unthinkable" about Friday's school shooting in Newtown, Connecticut, when it almost seems to happen on a regular basis?'
