(62,325 posts)I continue to come back to DU. A reminder of what DU used to be, a place where compassion and strength of character, real commitment to justice and Civil Liberties, made this a special place and you were and remain one if the shining lights that drew me and so many others to this place. Sadly you are one of only a few left who made DU what it was and the reason some of us still come here.
I can only imagine the sadness your family must be feeling, and am not surprised, knowing you as we do, that even under these terrible circumstances you follow your beliefs at a time when they surely are being tested.
I understand your feelings of compassion for the family of the perpetrator of this awful crime. In many ways, the families of those who commit these terrible acts suffer, perhaps even more sometimes, than the families of their victims, as they do not generally receive the support victims' families receive.
Thank for not letting go of your commitment to peace, love and compassion at this terrible time.
