  Such a senseless crime and terrible loss of innocent life. That this tragedy touches the Mets family so personally is very sad. God help all the vicitms and families.

  What an horrible tragedy, prayers to all those families. Let’s hope the politicians respect those who lost their lives and not exploit for party purposes.

    That is really sad, and awful. My prayers go out to the Greens, and all the other victims of the shooting.

  Christina Taylor Green.

  Remember that name, she is symbolic of how the horrors done to grown ups, reverberate to others.

  Nine years old, and now gone. Wouldn’t you love to have known her? I would, and I send out my sincere condolences to her family, friends and neighbors.

  She was just a little girl who got in the way of a crazed lunatic with a weapon.

  God Bless us all, this world is turning in the wrong direction.

    There are few things if any that I can think of more worse than the loss of a child. When I try to imagine the pain that family is going through it’s enough to bring me to tears.

    My heart goes out to them and all that have suffered due to yesterday’s tragedy.

  What I would like to see the Mets Family to Step up In some Way. Not only do the Mets the connection with the Green Family in severly ways On Christina-Taylor Green Her Birthday was Sept 11, 2001 They should do something special When the D-back come to town. also ask the leauge to wear special uniform for all the victiums when they play in AZ. This could also happen when the Mets play the Dodger. This is something special for a special Family

    I’m sure the Wilpons can pay their respects just as well privately as they can publicly. Let’s just each be allowed to do so in our own way.

  This from Bitter Bill. Next time he writes something to piss us off just remember he is doing a job. I say this more for me than anyone else mind you.

  “Now to a serious note: The Dallas Green story out of the Arizona tragedy – and the entire story in general – is another awful reminder of how precious life is and how it can end at any second. I spent Saturday – before I heard about the story – upset that my kids’ two rec basketball teams lost. Do you believe that? It just goes to show that as crazy as we get about the Mets and sports in general, it really is just a distraction from real life. And as bad as the Mets can be, or as much as they drive us crazy, it’s good to have that sort of distraction, because if you stop and think about some of the stuff that goes on in this world, it’s downright depressing.

  Have a good night. Hug your kids if you have them and pray for Green and everyone affected by the Arizona shooting.”
