Oops, sorry. Didn’t realize without the /s notation. It seemed so uncharacteristic. Did you get your coffee yet?
It works better if you hit the abuse button on yourself....
Thanks.
Sadly, another young person almost lost his life to violence by another. It happened in Boston where shootings and violence are common but “newsworthy”. What about Chicago where this happens routinely every day and nothing gets reported about those, sometimes innocent kids, who also loose their lives?
It’s not about guns, it’s about people without morals and upbringing. Of course there are the mental cases but MOST OF THE TIME, it is the people who have little or no home life and proper upbringing. Guns are nothing more than a tool to get the job done. Why not spend our time on the SOCIAL issues that are the real cause of these senseless killings. My prayers for this young man and the hundereds other like him.
One of the finest tenors I ever sang with went on to become a SEAL, and I don’t consider myself wimpy. By the way, it’s a great way to meet women.
What color goes good with gray? Brown.
Good people give glory to God in song no matter what their age.

Massachusetts needs gun control.
So are the Choir boys a street gang? branch of Disciples? :-)
We’re not allowed to talk about some of the root causes of ghetto violence. Because so many of the criminals are members of officially recognized aggrieved minorities, per liberals, any criticism is called racist. We’re not allowed to talk about the baby mama culture and the destruction of family life in the ghetto, because that denigrates single mothers.
My take on it is that liberals won’t allow discussion of certain aspects of these problems. So we have to dance around the issues. As horrific as mass shootings are, liberals have been silent for decades about all the gang violence, drive by shootings in the ghetto.
Not always. A hundred years ago it was home to the upper middle class.

Yeah, I remember now with your comment
1) Demonic evil ... perp just wanted to see somebody die.
2) Poor marksmanship ... perp was shooting at some rival, missed, and hit the choirboy.
3) Poor target identification ... perp mistook the choirboy for some other individual, with whom the perp had some disagreement.
4) Deliberate intent ... the perp intended to shoot the choirboy ... who might not be as innocent as suggested.
5) ???
