Alright...too much!

The horror of what happened at Virginia Tech is difficult to deal with, especially as we continue to learn about the shooter and his victims. Somehow, being on the other side of the Country creates a buffer but today, here in our backyard, our cushion was destroyed and it all feels much closer.

In Yuba City where I am working with my reality real estate series clients, Randi and Tony, there is a man the police are searching for a man who allegedly told his pastor he is planning a mass killing that will make the massacre at Virginia Tech look mild. You can read the full story in the Appeal Democrat. I have talked with Randi; she is scared about what is happening in her normally quiet town. I invited her to stay with us but she already had plans to be with friends tonight.

After hearing about Yuba City I went to pick up my son from school and was shocked to see all the kids being escorted to parents, rides and buses by their teachers. The small buffer of Yuba City being an hour away was wiped out! What is going on in our world?
Update – They caught the character in Yuba City last night, well actually he turned himself in to the police. Let’s have a quiet and peaceful weekend, the handgun debate can wait!
