Banality

This, apparently, is the man who killed one of the people I loved most in this world, along with 201 others last October. He is going to trial, still all smiles.

    Chris, I'm sorry you and Rick's other friends and family have to go through this all over again. This man, he doesn't even sound like he understands what he's done. How can he smile about this? I will never understand acts such as these. Never.

    It is my hope that when this ordeal is all over, you and everyone who loved your friend will find at least some degree of peace. Be well.
