November 5, 2017, Prescott-
My post about a visit to Cave Creek will be up soon. In the meantime, another Sunday, and more mayhem.
Upwards of thirty people may be dead,
and 30 others with life-threatening injuries.
All they set out to do, was worship.
Someone else had a different plan.
Bring on Armageddon.
Others responded to his act,
predictably-
blaming the Government,
blaming Trump,
blaming the Democrats,
even blaming anyone who
showed outrage at the horrific act.
This last, shades of post- Sandy Hook,
post- Las Vegas.
“It can’t be the shooter’s fault.
Maybe there was no shooter at all.
Maybe the Government made it all up.
Maybe it’s just a hologram.”
Tell that to the wounded.
Tell that to the families
who will be burying
their dead.
Tell that to all those
who have INDEED
lost their children,
parents,
siblings,
neighbours,
friends.
Denial means continuity.
Just so sad. I think we need to prepare ourselves for these things and be survivors. Not sure how to do that. 😦

There is no doubt in my mind that putting an end to these tragedies will need a mult-pronged approach. Denial, however, is buying less and less time, in between mass casualty incidents.
