I also am in agreement with Brenda. We're all far too upset as it is.
We don't need to aggravate that by going on with these arguments.
Can't we let it rest at least for awhile? I don't mean we need to
entirely dismiss it because some things do need to be discussed. But
right now my emotions are pretty ragged & raw. I had a hard time
sleeping last night. I also appreciate the time & thought that people
have put into their eye-witness reports, disturbing and
heart-wrenching as some of them are. Out of respect for people's
anguish & shock, can't we put off these other things at least for a
few days?
