    Who can doubt that we are in the last days? In 10 days the majority of our nation will have forgotten this.

    I just watched an update on MSNBC about this tragedy. Dear God, what a sad, terrible situation. The shooter is a smart, educated young man. What is wrong with people like that? My prayers go out for those affected by this senseless, horrific act.

    I find it odd that so many young children were at a midnight screening of an R rated movie. I use to live in Aurora and would go to this shopping center.

    I wish I could say the same. People haul their kids into all kinds of inappropriate movies, and then they wonder why their children wake up screaming in the middle of the night with nightmares.

    This incident should be reaping a huge crop of nightmares for everyone who was there.

    Did you guys see this article:

    Midnight Movie Massacre: Survivor of June mall shooting killed in Colorado theater

    Published July 20, 2012

    FoxNews.com

    Fox affiliate intern killed in movie theater...
    Witness talks about mass panic inside theater
    911 calls released from 'Dark Knight' movie massacre

    An aspiring sports reporter who escaped a deadly shooting in a Toronto mall last month was among the 12 killed in the massacre at a Dener-area movie theater where "Batman: The Dark Knight Rises" was playing early Friday.

    KDVR reports that Jessica Ghawi, who interned in the FOX 31 Denver sports department, tweeted early Friday morning from the movie theater just before the shooting occurred about 20 minutes in to the midnight showing of “The Dark Night Rises” in Aurora.

    Ghawi, who went by the name Jessica Redfield in her on-air role, narrowly escaped a June 2 shooting at a Toronto shopping mall that left one person dead and four others injured. Ghawi wrote a now-chilling post on her blog about how she left that scene just moments before that shooting took place.

    "This empty, almost sickening feeling won’t go away"

    - Jessica Ghawi, after surviving a mall shooting in June

    “This empty, almost sickening feeling won’t go away,” she wrote. “I noticed this feeling when I was in the Eaton Center in Toronto just seconds before someone opened fire in the food court. An odd feeling which led me to go outside and unknowingly out of harm’s way. It’s hard for me to wrap my mind around how a weird feeling saved me from being in the middle of a deadly shooting.”

    Jordan Ghawi told The Associated Press his sister's death comes as a "complete and utter shock."

    He has been using his blog and Twitter account to update what he knew about his sister's condition throughout the ordeal. He also appeared on the Today Show.

    Jordan Ghawi said on his website that a man who was with his sister at the theater described the chaos, saying he and Jessica Ghawi dropped to take cover when the gunman first started shooting. Jessica Ghawi was shot in the leg, her brother wrote, describing details relayed to him by a man identified on the blog only as a mutual friend named Brent.

    Jessica Ghawi began screaming when she was shot, and the man with her tried to calm her and stop the bleeding, according to Jordan Ghawi.

    The man was then shot, but he continued attending to Jessica Ghawi's wound before he realized she had stopped screaming, Jordan Ghawi stated. The man said Jessica Ghawi had been shot in the head.

    Jordan Ghawi said the friend escaped the theater after being shot twice, but was expected to survive. Jordan Ghawi also praised the man, saying his "actions are nothing but heroic."

    Jessica Ghawi, 24, moved to Denver from Texas about a year ago and friends and colleagues described her as outgoing, smart and witty..... Continues)

    Amen, brother. Ditto all of the above. We need to cry out to God over our Nation.

    A co-worker asked for prayer today. Her sister-in-law lives in Aurora and was supposed to attend that showing of the movie with a group of friends. At the last moment, she begged off. Several of her friends in the group were killed. The s-i-l is not a believer and is very angry at God over this.

    Why is she angry with God?
