I’m at once stunned and not surprised–mostly because this world is so totally fucked up.
Last night, in South Carolina, a twelve year old boy was killed, and his father and one of his three brothers injured, while trick-or-treating on their way back home after participating in a bigger Hallowe’en event downtown.
My heart goes out to this family.
This is just fucked up, period.
Edited to add: The 22 year old man who killed this innocent child is an ex-convict who, fearing his house was being robbed (after a knock on the front door–pardon me while I WTF all over the place), emptied his assault riffle through the front door and windows and walls.
Ex-convict.
Assault riffle.
Fucked the hell up.
