Prayers to El Paso Texas

AmericanEagle · #1 08-03-2019, 06:03 PM

Yet another mass shooting.
So incredibly sad.

Just this week Gilroy Garlic Festival, Walmart MS, Walmart El Paso TX, and now Dayton OH.

These and the other 248 mass shootings in 2019 is simply tragic.

Are you sure more prayers will stop any of this?

Please define ‘mass shooting’.

This thread is destined for closure, I suspect.

PM sent.

No matter how one defines it, it’s tragic.

Four or more indiscriminate victims not including the shooter.

The Wheel of Life turns faster for so many unfortunate ones.

Thanks and we all have our own method of responding in a personal way.
Those families I keep in my heart in their time of terrible, terrible loss.

They haven't been an effective form of prevention in the past, and I'm certain they won't in the future, as well intentioned as they are...

I hate to say it, but I don't think there is a defense against these random acts of insanity, and I'm frightened for my grandchildren growing up in times like these...

I can only express my deepest condolences to the families and friends affected by these senseless crimes...

And another one in Ohio. 9 more dead, 27 more injured or mutilated.

This prayer stuff is absurd, as it just stops people from doing anything productive. This has to stop. This should be the #1 concern and priority in this country.

Kerbie · #13 08-04-2019, 10:40 AM

Expressing thoughts, prayers or concerns is not absurd. There are lots of places in our society where we can try to do more, but not here.

Dirk Hofman · #14 08-04-2019, 10:43 AM

Clearly we disagree. I think people need to reflect on their approach to this. I’m beyond sick of what’s happening in this country.

Kerbie · #15 08-04-2019, 10:44 AM

I understand your feelings, Dirk, but the AGF is the best place to discuss guitars. There are other places better equipped to handle the complexities of this topic. We can't do it here.
