Knoxville sounds like a pretty decent place to me actually, if the people who live there are willing to jump in front of a man with a shotgun and tackle him to stop him from shooting people. There are crazies everywhere, it’s the behavior of the ordinary folks that make someplace a good place to live or visit or not. This community showed its true colors today and they were good ones. May the two victims rest in peace.

Yes, I grew up in Oak Ridge TN and the people are friendlier there than in the big city of Colorado Springs, CO although since I have lived here in Colorado I have met a few friendly people. In Oak Ridge I could meet friendly person after friendly person. It seems to be something about Southern hospitality. Part of that friendliness is standing up in the face of danger for your fellow man.

John 15:13
There is no greater love than to lay down one’s life for one’s friends.

and on that note, God bless to you all.
