After the events in Newtown, CT on Friday, you might expect a long
rambling about the 2nd amendment from me today. Well, not today. It's
not policy debate day. Right now is a time to mourn and reflect, not to
bicker and point fingers. Out of respect for the victims- those innocent
children and the adults who lost their lives- I will refrain from
political debates on guns until the flags in D.C. are raised from half
staff. There is a time for every purpose under God. Right now is a time
of sadness and grief. The policy debates can wait a few days.
My heart goes out to the families and friends of the victims. You are
in our prayers, and will continue to be. No words or gesture can fill
the void you now bear, but know that America is here for you. I pray
that the souls of those who lost their lives find peace, and that their
families may find some means of comfort to help them endure this very
difficult time.
