Even though that this is a few days late, this definitely should not have happened. :(

Yeah, but that still doesn't mean that it's right though. A child still lost their life. :(

Yeah, I know,.. but it's still awful. :(
It really is, my nephew drown in our pool while the parent (my brother) was using the bathroom, he somehow got out of the house. My brother went to look for him. I was downstairs and heard his screams. I went up and he was holding his dead child. I calmly motioned and said that we should try CPR, but it didn't work all that well and he later died on life support. It was the most horrible experience I've ever had.

The loss of someone so young is terrible. So much life left to live.

My great Aunt died and she asked to not be given treatment for pneumonia. She was old and tired of living. It was sad for me to lose her, but it wasn't nearly as terrible as my nephew.

The perp and victim are the wrong race and gender to warrant significant media coverage.

we don't agree much, but you're definitely correct on that one. the media is more quilty of not letting there be peace on the issues of race then anyone else. you have it all controversy, victims, bad guys, control over what people may say publicly, and most of all influence of the masses which manipulates voters thinking of who is the good guy or the bad guy, the whole nine yards. they will never let it rest. now they moved on to Asians but i think that's to redirect public from the bio attack from china (covid) to suppress the free world's economy. it works because victims are always in the right even if they are guilty.

you know rant rant rant

The usual thing to say, is "our thoughts and prayers are with you in this time of grief". One of my good friends from high school just lost his teenage son, and that was about all I could say to him. I lost my nephew about 33 years ago.

Still,.. it doesn't seem like enough to say because that still won't completely remove the pain or take it back. :(

So then,... What do we do about it? Also,.. all those of you who are thinking "but the child is with Jesus now so why should it matter in these circumstances?" Let me just ask you one question. Does that make it any easier for Devin to go through something like this? I think not.
