My heart is going out to all our Colorado sibling brewers.
I hope you all and all your loved ones are safe.
I hope you all and all your loved ones are safe.
I wanted to say something too but couldn't come up with the words... there have been a number of shootings in Ontario in the last week, it's pretty scary out there.
My thoughts are with anyone who's been affected by violence...
Yet another one of this type of occurrence, that makes the international news. Bringing a sense of sorrow, and a lack of comprehension.
After all, I understand that the Western country with the highest level of gun possession, has the lowest gun death rate, so why does this happen in the US with such apparent regularity ?
And no, the country with the highest gun possession isn't the US.....
All I am going to say is that it is said that an "Armed Society is a Polite Society".
And Vance, maybe this guy was counting on not living through the experience but couldn't end it himself like so many other perpetrators of senseless crimes like this? I may well be wrong, but I have specifically not been looking for information on the shooter, just the victims. They deserve to be remembered, this piece of garbage does not.
I am going to avoid getting into political positions as I have a pretty fierce opinion on gun possession as a southern boy who grew up in Texas in a conservative household. All I am going to say is that it is said that an "Armed Society is a Polite Society".
Unfortunately here, the politics and extremes of opinions and positions is overly complex and often tied into a vast array of other ideals and beliefs. Babylon is not burning yet, but we are certainly one step closer to Rome here in the U.S. at this point... Bleh...
How ever unlikely it may seem that a Sikh may make or drink mead, my heart goes out to all the families affected by another shooting tragedy.
I know there are plenty of Mazers in the SE Wisconsin area and my thoughts are turning to you all, hoping for the safety and well being of you and your loved ones.
The most ironic part about all of this is that the shooter apparently was targeting what he thought was muslims, and he had a 9/11 tattoo. If he was doing this for '9/11 retribution', wouldn't he eventually realize he just killed more Americans 'in the name of America'.
Kind of counterintuitive, if you ask me.
I can't be the only person who feels this way. <shrug>
It's just really irritating when the supposed gun controls let whackos legally purchase firearms like this...
