Kids, morals and the golden rule

[Guest guest]

Hi Everyone:

I live in Northeast Pa. and at this moment almost every school in my

area, elementary on up, is under a bomb scare. All the schools have been

evacuated and they are going in sweeping them for devices. Schools have

been dismissed, and as we all know, most of those children are going home

to empty houses. Sadly enough, to survive now, it almost always takes both

parents working. An incidence like this brings home how sad these times

really are.

I don't know if there is an answer to what makes children do horrific

things such as this. (I'm assuming it is young people) Perhaps it's time

that Littleton be left to deal with their tragedy, and hopefully totally

flush out anyone responsible for those senseless acts. But for the rest of

the nation I believe we need to stop the feeding frenzy of the news media,

and maybe not lead one more person to believe that this is the way to leave

their mark for some self-consuming cause.

Hopefully what is happening here now will not end in dire results. I

have quite a few of my grandchildren in school, and I've not breathed an

easy breath since this hit the news.

Hoping for a peaceful day for all of you.
