Sad News About A Warrior I Knew

Technical Sergeant Tara Brown, a superb Air Force NCO, co-worker, and more importantly, my Friend was killed in the line of duty.

Though it's been 8 years that we have been at war, I have fortunate to not personally know anyone who's been killed.  That is until this week.  A female warrior at that, it's harder to swallow.  Sad, doesn't begin to describe it.

Diva's Ramblings

Why?

So, one of my coworkers was rambling about something on the TV.  I think we had the news on.  Then he said "JESUS CHRIST!!!"
Now I did not, and still do not know exactly what he was referring to.  But I said "why blame it on Jesus Christ?"  I was just playing along.
So he said "then why are there so many stupid people in the world? Who made them like that?"
All I could come up with was this.  I told him "when God gave man free will, all bets were off!"
