saddened

Mindanao Island massacre was something so brutal that I cannot imagine it happening in our civilized world. Among the 57 victims were women and journalists who were covering the Philippines election. Some of the victims were even innocent passers by who witnessed the abduction and murders. Apparently more than 50 people participated in this appalling barbaric killing. According to AFP, a 'Philippine politician has been charged with mass murder on Friday after authorities accused him of ordering soldiers, police and other gunmen to kill in an organized slaughter'. What were they thinking, such disregard for human lives. sigh. I am at a loss for words.

I pray for the victims and the family of the victims.
