The news
For some reason, there’s little I want to write about today.
I have nothing to say about the Colorado church shootings, except to express my horror and shock. The fact that the church had an armed guard probably saved many lives.
I am so far from the anti-gun person I was in my twenties, that I barely recognize that person any more.
Off to my staff meeting in northern VA. I’m sure you’ll have plenty to talk about while I’m gone.

This church has an armed security guard is a member of the church. This clear-thinking lady (who was way under-equipped to go up against this thug) calmly walked straight at him and ordered him to surrender. He didn’t, so she kept firing until he was no longer a threat. Talk about “David vs Goliath” replays! (If she’d only had the presence of mind you yell, “Who is this uncircumsized Philistine that he should defy the army of the Living G-d?”)
Meryl, I’m disappointed in you. You call yourself a feminist and a defender of those under attack for their religion, so how can this story fail to thrill you on both accounts?

Bob, I hadn’t heard about that when I posted this post. I had no time to read anything yesterday morning. I drive up to northern VA every Monday morning except when the staff meeting is cancelled.

I’m becoming more and more cynical
