What the hell's the matter with April?
Posted: Tue Apr 19, 2011 3:15 pm
Saw an interesting story on CNN. I guess I never realized these events were on the same day/within days of each other.
Also, this means tomorrow and Wednesday marks the anniversary of Waco, the Oklahoma City bombing and the Columbine High School shootings. Yikes. I remember where I was for all of them. We watched Waco unfold on television in high school and I thanked heavens I was out of school before the entire culture of high school changed after Columbine. And I remember getting the chills when it came out that McVeigh had considered bombing the federal building here in Kansas City instead.
What is it about mid-April and violence in America?
