What is Wrong With People?

The news lately has been so sad...

Locally, a husband brutally killed his wife. The police were notified after their 6 year old son was found walking around outside, covered with blood.

In California, a man who was recently laid off killed his wife and four children.

In Australia, a man suddenly stopped while driving over a bridge, and threw his four year old daughter over the side, in to the river below.

I know that these are difficult times for a lot of people. But there is nothing so difficult that the only way to overcome it is kill family and leave children scarred for life.

If nothing else, walk away. Turn the children over to a trusted relative or friend, or by golly, even the government.

But all this tragedy is so unnecessary and so sad.
