Some of the details of the shooting at the Red Lake Indian Reservation are starting to come out. The tragedy and waste that occurred in this horrible shooting are overwhelming to me. So far I have not seen anything concerning the motives of this young man. Apparently he had been thinking of doing this type of thing almost a year ago. Sin is powerful. Can you imagine the despair he must have been living with to go this far?
So, at a time when we see the Terri Schiavo case going on in the courts with her death probably imminent we also see a mass shooting in one of our schools. The Pope has it correct we do indeed live in a culture of death.
