I am also reminded of another shuttle disaster, the Challenger in 1986 - another one that claimed that lives of all the astronauts, including Christa McAuliffe,the teacher from Concord, NH. That one impacted me, because I was born and raised in NH, and was a young mother at the time. Thank you for the reminder that assuming anything is never a good idea! ~~ K'LeeDr. K.

The city where I work had a mass shooting in 2009 which took 13 innocent lives and the life of the shoter - it has happened too many times, and finally we are talking about it - not always civilly - but we are finally confronting it.bookwormhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06589840841266507266noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8199270158927284616.post-62878935814679708282013-02-02T08:53:09.497-05:002013-02-02T08:53:09.497-05:00Very thoughtful post.

I think of that phenomenon when small children are killed, like in the New Town shootings. I wonder if those souls agreed to come in for a short time, to serve the cause of firearms management. Their passing certainly turned the tide. I celebrate them and you.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.com
