I'm no believer of the astrology junk, but it seems bad things just gravitate around this time of the year. Some of it is self-fulfilling - as witnessed by the Columbine duo, who wanted to coincide their rampage with Hitler's birthday.
April 16
- 1990: Dr. Kevorkian's first "assisted suicide."
- 2007: VTech massacre
April 18
- 1996: Qana "Massacre"
- Today: earthquake in the Midwest. Minor, yes, but... the Midwest?
April 19
- 1993: Waco
- 1995: Oklahoma City Bombing
April 20
- 1889: Hitler's birthday
- 1999: Columbine Massacre
- 2007: Crazy man at Johnson Space Center
April 21
- 1975: Fall of Saigon
- 1989: Tianamen Square
Vielleicht am I overly pessimistic being. April 20, 2008 - what next? I know if I go back long enough, I can find plenty of bad things that have happened on any day of the year, but still....
As we reflect on all these tragic events in our recent memories, maybe some thoughts, prayers, lessons learned, and considerations on how our rights and freedoms and worldly perspectives have changed as a result. Hopefully, this weekend will come and go without any hurting.
Please, no talk about legalizing pot.
