Something Other Than the SOTU

This morning on NPR I was surprised to hear a commentator say it was a shame the Red Lake school shooter was a coward & killed himself… hello? Why is that a shame – because we can't get an eye for an eye? We want to get him back, and can’t do that because he already took care of it for us?

I was thinking that, if God is a just God, murderers will spend eternity as servants of their victims. How cool would that be?

Great bumper sticker from www.gaialovegraffiti.com: "Any Fool can Start a War… Peace takes Leadership" This is more true in middle school than anywhere! :)

I didn't hear the NPR story about the school shooter, but perhaps the commentator considered the shooter's suicide a shame because now we can't learn his motivation. Or because his death is shameful as are the deaths of the victims. Realize I'm guessing out of context, but those words aren't necessarily vengeful.
