Trying To Make Sense of Tragedy

Like everyone else, I've been trying to make sense of the killings of young children and school personnel in Newtown, CT. and not having much success. Young children, just before Christmas, killed violently. I can't imagine the loss and heartbreak of these families and the fear and horror experienced by surviving children. Guns and mental health can and will be blamed. As many have already said, this needs to be talked about. We need to try to figure out how to prevent these events and how to support survivors but making sense of it probably isn't possible.
