Tragedy strikes..


Twenty-six people died today at the Sandy Hook Elementary School. Twenty of them were children, six were adults. Among the adults, there were the school's principal and school's physchologist. They were all killed by a young, twenty year old man named Adam Lanza.

It  truly saddens me when I read people's comments on this.
'So what? Many people die every day. It's not me, I don't care.'
I'm not sure what are they expecting to achieve with that; looking bad-ass, looking cool or whatever. Well it doesn't. It makes you look like a bloody jackass. Instead of acting like one, try showing some compassion because the situation could be different. It could be someone you know.
What if it was your mum or dad? Your best friend, girlfriend, boyfriend or even your little brother or sister?
Can you imagine living without a family member?
Still not convinced? Go ahead and try talking to a hysteric crying mother who's child died and convince her that it's fine that her kid died because so many other people die every day. Can you do that? No, you can't.
Because he/she meant the bloody world to her. You don't know the feeling of parenthood, the love you feel for your child, what length would you go for her/him.. You underestimating it.

And I still see people on Omegle making fun of it..
'All the other kids from Connecticut, you better run, better run outrun my gun' 
This literally sicks me. As you may or may not know, the person used lyrics from the song Pumped up kicks by the Foster people and worked the reference of the shooting into a verse.
The original lyrics are: All the other kids with the pumped up kicks, you better run, better run, outrun my gun.
I know you may think it's clever or funny but it's sick, what it is. I personally like some black humor every now and then but not something like this.
Another thing I saw was:
The parents of the kids that died in the connecticut shooting should be thankful. He saved them lots of money and now they will be able to buy nice things. Fucking ungrateful dicks.
I can't even.. I'm not sure should I even bother. I'd say it is a troll but I feel like he put too much effort and emotion in it and that this is his/hers actual opinion.

All in all, my heart goes out to the families and friends. It gets better. Not instantly, not completely but over time it stops hurting as much. It never fades away completely because the memory of her/him will still be as fresh in 20 years as it is now but you learn to live with it over time. It gets better.
