But do you guys think that it is worse now? Or was there time in the past when it was worse?  I mean I know there was war and such but I can not remember a time where kids kill kids (Columbine for example) or work place shooting, now army base shootings. Just blalant chaos??

Yeah your right rick, it was awful!! we used to press/boil/stretch/burn/impale people to death!!  and that was LEGAL!!!! and included children!

the trouble is, bad always seems to have to be present when there is good about, it seems a balance we won't be able to stop, to live something must die, its just the balancing act of life, to have good we must endure bad, low follow highs, highs follow lows, its the circle we all live in!

Hmmm...good point Jason. Good point.

*sigh* then I'll just have to take it upon myself to tech my girls what is good...and what is not...and push the good till then can do it on their own.

That is so wonderfully stated, Jason.

It is hard to see the suffering around us, it is hard to understand why

Time to get rid of your guns in America, Krissy. It won't stop it, but it may stop some of the idiots who carry out these senseless acts.
