The people who died were all Christian, obviously. If it brings any sense of peace or comfort to their families to be offered prayers, then why would anyone have a problem with it?


Thoughts and prayers are fine, but are they enough?  Should our elected officials try harder to keep guns out of the hands of the mentally ill, or are thoughts and prayers all we're paying them for?
