Spare a thought today for the poor people affected by this tragedy.  We've seen enough of things like this in my country, how one deranged madman can wreak so much havoc and cause so much devastation.  My prayers go up today for the victims (mostly teens) and their grieving families.  That a*****e killed 93 people.  It boggles the mind.

Yes, it's hard to imagine why things like this happen. What on Earth must go on in the heads of the perpetrators?

Our thoughts and prayers go out to all involved

When I read about this in today's newspaper I just sat back stunned and shocked!  How is it possible that a person can go so wrong in order to cause such an incredible tragedy.  It is not only the children that were killed or maimed, but every single child that was there will have been traumatised.  Every parent and sibling and families of those poor children killed will never have the same lives again.

And now James you say he is pleading not guilty.  I don't get it?  Unless he is pleading insanity, which he must be in order to have done a thing like this.

For what little help it will be I join my thoughts and prayers to those above!

We have the same system over here - innocent until proven guilty by a jury of your peers.  It's a great justice system, but sometimes the guilty get off on a technicality, like OJ Simpson.  I'm not a great fan of the death penalty, but in a case like this, well.....

Tis true...there aren't really words to ease the sorrow.  I have not as of yet read his "motive".... but I would guess it was politcal in some way.... from what's been said so far.

Now they are also saying that the day before... nieghbors were hearing Amy Winehouse screaming and howling... coming from her house.... and so am awating what they find out on that situation also. I think they were going to do an autopsy on her body yesterday from what I was reading.

Getting to be an crazy world any more.
