This Is So Fucking Tragic

This one line in particular fucking killed me.

"We write messages to the guest of honor on balloons and release them into the air, hoping they get to her in heaven."

I am not a religious man by any means but that image breaks me.

Even so, the cynic in me reminds me that every day people are needlessly killed...and that we the American people pay for it to happen. 20+ ppl killed per day in the mexican drug war and counting! Holla!
