God has big plans for her. I feel so terrible for the family that lost two teenage daughters, and the father hospitalized. How difficult must it be to recover when you know your children have perished prematurely? At the same time, as Bridget mentioned, how many families are going to get to spend Christmas cherishing each other thanks to this brave lady. My prayer is that this lady will be blessed beyond blessed. So much so, that <a href="http://conservablogs.com/sunflowerdesert/2007/12/06/christian-ministry-rebuffs-senate-finances-probe/" target="_blank" rel="nofollow">Senator GrASSley</a> wants to know what's going on. Go figure, she's single with no children, yet look at the children she was able to save? I saw another article where she states that she was just coming off of a 3 day fast, yet God gave her the ability to focus sharply, steady hands, and courage. Would be cowardly homicidal maniacs need to take note -- this might not be the <em>gun free</em> zone you are counting on. Righteous people are sick of your ilk and will take you out. Hi Tieki,

I'm sure it's not easy to kill someone - anyone - but by doing that she saved so many lives, we can't even guess. Bridget said it before I could, I hope she never feels guilty about this.

Check out my most current post of the praise a Vietnam Veteran offers regarding her actions. As for Vick -- at least he's apologetic. It's a start. I definitely agree with your take on it Neil. What Vic did was cruel and inhumane, but so many of the people railing against him do not value the lives of the unborn. Hi Bridget and Neil,

I pray only the best for Ms. Assam. Check out my most current post of the praise a Vietnam Veteran offers regarding her actions.

As for Vick — at least he’s apologetic. It’s a start. I definitely agree with your take on it Neil. What Vic did was cruel and inhumane, but so many of the people railing against him do not value the lives of the unborn.

She saved many lives. It is hard to believe the pacifists would criticize her for doing the right thing. Re. Vick - he did some seriously bad things. But I can never hear his name without thinking how many of the people railing against him are pro-choice. Good for her. She saved many lives.

Vick was dressed in a black-and-white striped prison suit and apologized to his family and to the judge.

“You need to apologize also to the millions of young people who look up to you,” U.S. District Judge Henry E. Hudson retorted.

Of course, everyone nearby will always wonder if the guy would have hit them, or their friends, or their kids. So many people are going to get to live, and so many families are going to be together, because of what she did. I cannot imagine what those other families are going through right now. I mean, they went to church on a Sunday, and all of a sudden, people were brutally murdered. I hope that Miss (Mrs?) Assam never feels a moment's worth of guilt. I hope whomever taught her to shoot a gun is proud as all get-out and thinking, "That's my girl."
