(TriceEdneyWire.com) - After all of the senseless killings in schools, in churches, in workplaces, on streets by civilians and by those charged to protect and to serve us; I cannot help but wonder, "When will it end?" Our world has become increasingly mean and violent. Tempers are short. People take what doesn't belong to them. Arguments happen over practically nothing. Members of Congress refuse to compromise-making life miserable for those they were elected to serve. We see adults acting like children.
