#bostonshooting

[goodmorning-goodday]

I can’t seem to find the words to describe how sad the Orlando shooting is.  To many people, it’s just another shooting.  To some, it’s a political statement.  However, to me, it’s a stark reminder of the reality that I cannot escape.  The world is not safe right now, and for as many people who are understanding, there are just as many who want nothing more than for your identity to be shunned, or worse.  I’m scared for the people who were affected, and also for everyone who isn’t straight or cis.  Not that there’s anything wrong with that. Everyone is just different and we need to accept that.

I honestly can't look away from CNN. I can't believe this person who did the Boston bombing is my age. He's a kid and has manage to lockdown Boston and have over 9,000 cops look for him. That's insane. I couldn't even imagine what would be going through my brain.

Reading all this awful news makes me realize how little I have done and how helpless most of us are in times of tragedy. How can you scroll down without pausing to even think about your fellow citizens, or just humankind? Why do we complete disregard it? Is because we feel like its pointless, that it doesn't matter or is there some genuine, heartfelt, good reason why every user of this site can't take a minute 5 seconds to just think about the recent bombing and shooting in the U.S.A? We've spent time expressing sorrow for the 2004 tsunami, the Arab Spring in 2011 and other international events across the world. Shouldn't we try to do the same for this tragedy too?

west bureau baptist church is disgusting

They will find every reason, any fucking reason to prove themselves. Its fucking sick. This bombing is far more serious than god having these bombs planted to prove faggotory is wrong. Not everything revolves around them, there's so much more then fucking gay rights. This shouldn't even be mentioned in something so serious as this. Was 9/11 a symbol of Gay rights being wrong? Was Sandy Hook a symbol of that? Was the Colorado shooting a sign? N O. All this was, was sick twisted people with terrible intentions, and its fucking scary and my fucking own sister, is trapped in boston as we speak, and you bring up 'gods hatred against gays.' Get your head out of your ass, how ignorant can you be. Them saying that, is just as bad as the people who bombed Boston. This is such a serious thing, how dare you, how fucking dare you even say such a thing. I hope you rot in hell. 

I hope everyone's prayers or hopes go to Boston and all the lives that have been affected by this, and i hope my sister, is safe.
