How can the people of the United States cope with so much tragedy. 911, Oklahoma, Boston, Texas, Newtown it goes on and on. And yet as a nation you rally round. The horrible cowardly acts of violence against U.S. citizens that causes such pain and heartache is just plain EVIL. People from around the globe feel your pain.
