Even when everything is peaceful there is usually an overzealous cop or something. This is unheard of. We need to beat the media over the head with it.

Deepest condolences to all of you. To the Hortmansβ family, friends and colleagues. To our whole country. This is unspeakably sad and horrible. Holding you and the Hoffmans in our hearts from every place in this country that is still sane, from every citizen with a heart and basic human decency.
