Hi.
Are there enough problems in the world for you? Imagine how Pope Francis feels? He has to worry about one fifth of the world's population. That is not an easy job.
I consider 'the home' to be a place of comfort. Comfort is a very big dynamics in surviving a stressful world. It has been my experience when raising children, home was a place they came to and brought their friends/peers/whatever when they found comfort as the overriding principle. They were never estranged. I had rules in the house. I wasn't going to be walked all over. But, they were simple and respectful rules the boys grew up with.
SO.
Just when you thought you were getting your act together, comes domestic gun terrorism.

In an email, the FBI stated, "Out of an abundance of caution, the FBI Philadelphia Field Office notified local colleges and universities of a social media posting which threatened violence at a Philadelphia-area college or university for Monday, October 5. No specific college or university was identified in the posting. We encourage students, faculty, and employees at area colleges and universities to follow the guidance of their campus security officials. The FBI will continue to work with our federal, state, and local law enforcement partners to investigate threats of violence, and, as always, we ask the public to report suspicious activity to law enforcement."
In a tweet Sunday afternoon, Temple University alerted their community to check their emails for an important public safety message from Temple police.
This is anarchy enforced by the gun lobby. Black powder lends itself to bombs. The domestic picture is looking hideously violent. This is the USA in 2015? Really? There needs to be laws to stem this violence. This is disruptive and unproductive for a First World Country that claims to be the pinnacle of democratic success. It seems as though the USA is living a lie. A very deadly lie.

Philadelphia (WPVI) --
The FBI and ATV (click here) (I think the ATV is a typo. Should it be ATF?) have sent out a warning of a threat of violence against "a university near Philadelphia" for Monday.In an email, the FBI stated, "Out of an abundance of caution, the FBI Philadelphia Field Office notified local colleges and universities of a social media posting which threatened violence at a Philadelphia-area college or university for Monday, October 5.
