Shoot to Kill

This is Sad, real Sad. Reality Bites. Big time. 10 people were killed in Rizal Commercial Banking Corporation (RCBC) branch in Laguna, Philippines. May 16, 2008. During a bank robbery. All of the victims were shot to the head by a single, point-blank bullet. Yes, point-blank. As i can picture the scene from reports, some of them were lined up and one by one shot in the head. Sounds familliar? Same scene from the Columbine High School Massacre where the victims were allegedly lined up and killed. The twist in the Massacre was they had a question to answer, "Do you Believe in God?", the "no" answer might save your life, if you give the "yes" answer, then you'll get shot in the head. Cassie Bernall was one of the ones who said yes. This was the inspiration behind the song Cassie by Flyleaf. It's sad to know what the world has come to, this is a sign of the times, a sign that we're doing something wrong. As if Robbery wasn't enough, they still had to kill the defenseless people inside the bank.

One more incident that happened here in Laguna was a massacre that occured in Calamba City on May 19, 2008. 8 people were killed, including children, shot by a lone gunman. The said motive behind the killing was it was just mere rage that drove him to kill the family. It was said that 2 children of the 8 people that were killed was locked in an embrace as they were repeatedly shot. This is just inhuman. Just terrible. The gunman was killed 2 days after, he was still carrying the M-16 rifle that he used to kill the family.

Justice will be served. Uhm, eventually. I hope so.
Please pray for them.
Condolences to the family of the victims.
My heart mourns your loss.
God Bless. Keep Safe.
