Just Feeling Sad Today

The state of the world is making me sad today. I am thinking of the family in Colorado killed by the husband and dad. I don't understand why this horrible stuff happens. It makes me sad that the wife was pregnant and Colorado does not consider the unborn baby as a person so they won't charge the husband with murdering the third child. Why do you think this kind of thing happens? What do you think of this awful case?

Yes I had thought about him being guilty when I did not care for his demeanor. Even tho I had an inkling he was guilty, it still hurts to hear this. Such a lovely woman and kids. And I cannot believe they do not have the unborn child law. Yes, it does baffle you Jo Ann. I feel sad a lot too.

It is the things that don't make any sense that hurt so much. I don't understand how people can kill their own children.

@Courage7 I think most people feel the same way. I wish there was a way of stopping these things before they happen.

When I watch the news, I also feel bad and pray that God hopefully soon brings an end to all the bad things that are happening each and every day. Bad things happen because there are bad or sick people that do them.

I like your name, Hope. I pray the same thing. This all has to end but is getting worse.

@akalinus Yes, no matter what happens we must not lose hope. However, we should not be surprised that horrible things are happening. We should expect them. Until God intervenes things will go from bad to worse. If you go to the Bible to 2 Timothy chapter 3 verses 1 and 13, you will see that last days would be difficult and that evil men would go from bad to worse. The good news is that it is the "last days" and things are about to come to a climax. So, we can rejoice in the hope of better things soon.

It is not a good situation. In fact the unborn child is a life and I do not like the idea of pretending it is not. Murdering that unborn child along with the family. So the mother had two other children get killed too? I did not see the report.

I have read that the child was a boy. If true, it would have been his first son. How gruesome is that?

Yes, there were two little girls aged three and four, I believe. One was supposed to start kindergarten.

If you want to search for it, it is the Watt family from Colorado.

I know it's sad. There are murders on tv all the time. A woman pushed her children in front of the train. She killed her children amd herself.

It is terrible. A woman here took her small child out into the ocean and left her there. They recovered her body after someone called the cops when they saw her coming back without the child.
