Rev. Howard, this sounds like a wonderful thing to do. I will pass this article to everyone I possible can so that they can think of ways to 'fast' as you have stated here -- whether it be food, drink, computer, etc. I believe we all can do something to help to end the violence that our society has up until now heard about, but not really paid much attention to until it happens to them directly, or a magnitude such as this tragedy. The violence has weighed heavily upon my heart for some time now, and I've always wondered what I could do to help eradicate/alleviate it. With so much violence aimed at our youth in video games, television and all the ways media has invaded our lives, it is going to take a miracle to penetrate this evil force that seem to have overtaken our nation. Where is GOD is always my first question when I heard of such tragedy. Whether it is one person killed by guns, or many. Why have we allowed such evil to have overtaken our society? This has been coming for many years now, and it has reared its ugly head time, and time again. We have got to finally 'get it.' Let's take back our country from the forces who say we have the 'right to bear arms.' I've never wanted to own a gun, or anyone in my family for that matter. We've gotten along without arms all this time, and have never had the need for them - except once when my grandfather had to assist a neighbor in shooting a snake that had gotten into their home, and I'm talking 50 years ago. Now 50 years later, we see what the 'RIGHT to Bear Arms' has gotten us. Nowhere, but continuous violence and killing for nothing. Now what?
