My condolences to the families of those who were killed in the shooting in Arizona, and prayers and positive thoughts for those still struggling to heal. As a writer, I can only marvel at people who advocate violence in their speeches and writings, then act surprised when it manifests. Words have power. Thoughts become actions. I watched the Kennedy brothers be assassinated, and King and other civil rights leaders, too. Let’s clean it up, people. Get conscious. Be honest.
