I agree. Right now everyone here needs a connection to the outside (to
others outside our country) as we all feel as though a neighbor on the
next block has been attacked and killed by some a-- h--- from outside.
Even though it was not an attack upon me as a person it was close enough
to make me think that it could be closer and then it would be my family
members blown to bits. I had better do something about it now, before
it gets closer. The very principal of what all Americans stand for -
FREEDOM to live and let live - has been attacked. Maybe all the clans
will rise. I'm sure there will be fireworks in the week to come once
they find out for sure who is responsible. There will probably be a war
unless some other state cooperates in the capture of the guilty. I
truly hope you and yours do not get caught up in this mess. It is
definitely not going to be pretty. If we all come out of it maybe some
day we will play duets at Mugdock Castle.
