    1. That’s what I said! In more than one article, I see a lot of grammar errors. Don’t they do grammar check anymore?!

  1. My prayers are with both family & friends.
    Sometime stress or mental anguish can take
    control of a person and they just don’t know
    how to channel their stress, their thinking is
    not normal…
    With all my heart I know both have the
    hope of living again. “DEATH HAS NO VICTORY”.

  2. Even a cop uses a handgun to kill innocent person. Just imagine what it will be if we allow civillians to own a handgun.
