Thoughts and Prayers from the UK

[AndyC]

I have just seen the BBC News about the terrible shooting in a movie theatre in Denver Colorado where 14 innocent people were randomly shot dead.....such an awful tragedy...such a sad sad day.

I just wanted to send my thoughts and prayers from here in the UK to all the families and friends of those victims.

Every day there seems to be another nightmare unfolding somewhere. The evening news in Chicago sounds like a body count. When The Media provides us with movies that glorify death and violence the results are obvious.

[tlongmire in reply to Joealt]

Agree.

I also live in the UK and find it totally incomprehensible that, no matter how many of these 'disasters' occur, the US STILL actually defends it's citizens 'rights' to have almost unlimited firearms!

Apparently this 24? year old was freely able to just walk in off the street and buy FOUR deadly weapons!

Perhaps the US government might now decide to start protecting the 'civil rights' of the unfortunate VICTIMS of these crimes by starting to restrict the availability of deadly weapons?.

I won't hold my breath though.

[tlongmire in reply to Chalkie]

I'm from the US and agree with you 100%.

Thank you Andy! Your thoughts and prayers are so appreciated! Many people of Colorado (including a friend of mine) have lost their homes this month due to massive wildfires and now are dealing with this horrific shooting. Keep praying for sanity....

[tlongmire in reply to CathyS]

Yes, this has been a sad time for all Coloradans. It's all so senseless.

[AndyC in reply to CathyS]

You`re welcome, Colorado has had more than its share of tragedy recently

[PatV]

Thank you. I agree the 2nd amendment doesn't give the right to roam about with ASSAULT weapons! Prayers for all affected.

[tlongmire in reply to PatV]

Agree 100%.

[tlongmire]
