 | people shoot each other everywhere for all kinds of insane reasons. look at  the struggles in rwanda that happened in
 1994-1995. even worse than murders like that one you linked,
 mass killings are in human history. best thing to do is just
 listen to music, be calm and make sure you're mentally
 healthy. have fun and laugh
 
 maybe it helps to reconnect with the body, too. lots of
 humans are not even connected with the body and are living
 out huge fictions... big, nebulous false identities and mind
 made characters. people live lives convinced they are
 separated from the totality of the universe! that theres' a
 "me". i think thats responsible for all the killings and
 murders and self inflicted violence... if you are not aware
 of your own humanity then how can you recognize the humanity
 in another..

 | right so, are the people who are bad and killing other people going to hell? and the positive people who enjoy
 music and be calm goto heaven?
 
 There seems to be no humane rationality in murder and
 hatred, it is the ugly side of which the other is
 "happiness"

 | i dont think heaven and hell exist. i just think that the current reality exists and needs paying attention to. if
 humans seek fulfillment in the future then the "now" kind of
 sits in atrophy doesn't it? we have a weird view of the
 universe where we think we are not a part of the totality
 that is the universe. so, no i dont think theres any reward
 or punishment for anything, but i do think the pain can be
 alleviated by relaxing, staying positive and allowing others
 to see you  demonstrate that behavior model..

 | someone looks at the myriad tiny fragments scattered across a massive plain and picks out one of the fragments and holds
 it up to the light and calls it america.
