Sometimes words really do fail

to express exactly what I'm thinking.

Yesterday in Congress Park, a love-triangle between a mom trying to reconcile with her ex-husband and a man living in their basement who couldn't let go of his love for said mom turned ugly. Basement man came upstairs brandishing a weapon and fired at Dad who was clutching a 2 year old son in his arms as he ran away. The bullet went through Dad's hand and into the 2 year old's chest, killing him. Mr. Shooter is on suicide watch.

According to the shooter he is sorry. He didn't mean to shoot anyone.


I really shouldn't have read the article or listened when Tim talked about the article. I have a two year old. I ache for his father. And I cannot let go of the image of a bullet burning through your palm as your son goes limp in your arms. Unbelieveable.
