so much evil and devaluing of human life...
So so sad. I wonder what triggered this.

Another cousin, who wanted to be identified only as Raniet, told Daily Mail Australia on Saturday the mother arrested in relation to the murder of eight children turned to God just days before the killings.
Raniet - a Torres Strait name - said Mersane Warria took her seven children to St Margaret's Anglican Church a few kilometres from her home last Sunday and sat them all in a pew, holding her 18-month-old baby in her arms.

Such a shame, sounds like she needed mental help.
Interesting how things like this aren't blown out as badly, because there wasn't a gun involved.

Murder/suicide in my state back in October, and senstionalised all over the media calling for gun control, bemoaning ready access to firearms in rural communities...etc.

For sure.

So she was a recent religious convert?
Is that a problem, or are you trying to make it one? I just want to be clear on where you're going with this that's all.-RD

Sad world we live in.
Heart breaking news. So sad, so very sad.
We need to ban knives now, and institute stricter requirements for background checking them

Seems that you're making it into a problem, that much is clear to me.
After reading some of your other posts I figured it was worth asking. I got it now, thanks.-RD
I accept your apology.
Let's hope you've learnt to be a little less presumptuous in future. We'll shall see.
