A few weeks ago the reading at church was from "the book of wisdom" which I thought was amusing.  I mean who would want to hear from "the book of stupidity", or "the book of foolishness".  But then on the ride home I passed a house with a sign in the front lawn "Repeal the Safe Act".  What do they want?  "The Unsafe Act". "The dangerous Act", the "Kill the People Act"?

Last Friday Sabra went to Central Park to wait with thousands of people to see the Pope ride by.  Security was high, the fear in the back of everyone's minds was "Don't let some crazy person shoot the Pope".  And no one did.  No one even tried, as far as we know.  But you would have to wonder, if they had, would that make a difference in this country?  Killing movie goers didn't, killing first graders didn't, killing church goers didn't.  Would a Pope make the difference?
