MAYBE we should set aside one special day each year, to remember all those who have died in the previous year as a result of the violence which we read about in our newspapers - the little children, the old and the youth, who are taken away in this carnage.

Perhaps, if we repeat it to ourselves often enough that this is not acceptable, then, in the end, we will begin to believe it.
