connecticut shooting

On the streets yesterday speaking with folks about the Connecticut tragedy, six in ten that I spoke with, called the United States a permissive society.  Maybe.  I lean more towards a reactive culture. The following may appear to be an insensitive comparison in wake of a lone gunman's heinous massacre, but by setting out to accomplish the goal, success has a better chance of sprouting.

By now, the heart wrenching act carried out by a cowardly madman in Connecticut, has many of us challenging faith and acceptance in our world today, and while most of us are asking "how did this happen?", and/or "why did this happen?, I'm just plain sick of all the commentary invoking "mental health" as a plausible reason for mass executions outside of combat.

Nice job Lorne Michaels. Saturday Night Live skipped the usual fun monologue on Saturday Night to pay tribute to those that lost their lives Friday at Sandy Hook Elementary in Connecticut. The New York City Children's Choir sings "Silent Night."
