Tuscon Thoughts

I'm sure the law of six degrees of separation applies to many of us.  The shooting in Tuscon has touched the country.  And our world is indeed a small world.  Our good friend Dave had been friends with John Roll since 4th grade. He also knows the Congresswoman and her aides.  Anyone with a nine year old has to feel the pain of her family.  We are one nation, one family.  Let's not be a dysfunctional family.  We need to work together without the meanness that has grown too common in life today.  It is a time for the rancor of political rhetoric to end. As teachers say:  "Model good behavior for our children."  That goes for family conversations around the dinner table, neighbors in our communities, pundits on the tube, politicians on a soapbox, and leaders around the world.
