I think a lot of the problem with violence like this is people that are damaged, by either abuse, lack of something or just ....well no real nice way of saying it ...but just plain low on intelligence and mislead!

And true it's lack of intelligence and education but you find now that the most intelligent and well off people can be the most evil!! My favourite: Pictures \| Towns \| Attractions

I remember that, Rhett! Hiding under my desk with my head bowed and my hands behind my head. lol. Thank god we never had to do it for real. Yes, I was only a few months old during the cuban missile crisis and blissfully unaware but the adults must have been terrified. Krissy, this is horrible.

If enough people change their ways of thinking and change their habits MAYBE it will do some good? Or am I just a dreamer? My favourite: Pictures \| Towns \| Attractions

I think it will take several hundreds of years further evolution for mankind to "breed out" the tendency to solve problems with violence. Which is an oxymoron since that can't be done; solving problems with violence I mean. My favourite: Pictures \| Towns \| Attractions
