Anyways, I mostly try not to think emotionally about any of this stuff. A news story has to be a news story to me. There's too much awful I just can't handle it emotionally to allow myself to really think about it.
I was 26 or 27 and I felt a real sense of community a pulling together of people who didn't know what to do but wanted to help each other. Here... It feels like a political statement. these people died so some douche bags can feel justified in pushing legislation that been sitting on for months or years... These monsters did not even let the bodies cool before they started in with their agenda. which makes all of the solidarity seem fake or even hypocritical. What's worse are the victims themselves using this opportunity to show case/push their talents and share their dreams of fame and or music career ambitions... They do this at the expense of their dead friends...
