Moving On Sadly From The Connecticut Tragedy

Hello,

Twenty-seven innocent people were killed yesterday by someone that obviously had serious issues. However that doesn't mean the world stops. As well as possible we do need to move on, although we'll be feeling numb in our hearts. And just because we are moving on, doesn't mean we'll forget all these victims.

Please let's not hate on the killer, 20 year old Adam Lanza, we have no idea the troubles he had faced in his life. We also have no idea what went on his mind.

In the sports world the NBA continued on last night. Thunder forward Kevin Durrant printed "Newtown Ct" on his shoes. Also Kevin Garnett and Kevin McHale exchanged a hug last night. That probably had more to do with McHale's daughter recently dying, but it was still a touching moment on a horrific day.

I don't post this list to be ghoulish, but hopefully to provide some context for this terrible tragedy. As always when there's any breaking news, I always go to abcnews.com. I find that their coverage is fair and accurate. This is the list of the names of all the victims of yesterday's tragedy copied and pasted directly from abcnews.com. Thanks to them.
