Wow. What a tragedy. Hug those you love tonight. We're not promised tomorrow, which is why we gotta make every day count we got. Blessings to hawkeyenation and your families tonight. Hold em a little closer. Praying for Damon's family.

Sad loss. Now some philosophizing.

The Cosmos is random and ever-changing. Sadly the majority of the human race believes we can over-ride mother nature and create a Utopia which guarantees us the things we want. And because of this leaders appeal to the least mature/most irrational aspect of our personas. As a result many people can't handle the inequities of existence and act out their personal demons. If mother nature doesn't provide a welfare program for bunny rabbits/bengal tigers/bees/eagles/frogs and every other creature of the earth, why do people think they are entitled to life/liberty/happiness? A benevolent Universe allows for life to arise from lifelessness. After your born there are no guarantees and it's up to every living thing to navigate an indifferent Universe.

MLK jr dead at 38 - Charles Manson dead at 83. Proof that God/Nature/SantaClaus doesn't subscribe to the human-centric fiction we call "fairness".
