I must strenuously disagree with you! Genesis 9:6, KJV; “Whoever sheds human blood, By man his blood shall be shed, For in the image of God He made mankind."

Prayers are with Melissa and your family. Based on the story, the shooter is obviously mental and needs to be locked up for the rest of his life for the protection of the community at large. I'll leave it at that.

Of course, there is also Matthew 5:44 -
But I say unto you, Love your enemies, bless them that curse you, do good to them that hate you, and pray for them which despitefully use you, and persecute you;

I have prayed for Melissa and her children and those involved in her healthcare as well as the person responsible for the shooting.

My sister just texted me to tell me that. It's probably the same story the Lockport NBC affiliate ran, but she said she recorded it and will send it to me.
The older daughter is going to hospital this morning and will give us an update later today.
Thanks for all your prayers. It means a lot to us.
edited to add: I saw the local news video. It has some really nice pictures of Melissa. She looks just like her mother.

I wish her a speedy and successful recover. Don't know the circumstances, but I hope the shooter gets what he deserves.

Worked with a guy who was raised in the Elko area of Nevada. He once said to me that he still wasn't comfortable with the idea of neighbors he could actually see from his property. He felt that cramming humans together in cities was a VERY bad idea. Once again he has been proven correct.
