Mere words.

Two things:

1 - Your political opinions aren't going to actually help the victims in Connecticut tonight, no matter WHAT those opinions are;

2 - Your actionless "thoughts" and "feelings" are going to do just as much for those people in d
esperate need as your political opinions, whatever they are.

Are you satisfied with that? These people are going into CHRISTMAS without their kids, without their spouses... essentially without their breath or their light in their lives...

I can't believe that this is all we can do for them -- merely think to ourselves and feel to ourselves and then post about it to social media websites.

I want to either take action, or give great aid to those who are in better positions to take action, on behalf of these people. I don't believe they're able to be consoled, and so I won't hope to try to, but these people had real-world burdens before this dark day that are continuing on, and I firmly believe that we can help them with those. Something. Anything.

Not nothing. Not words.
