    The death of a child is the hardest death to face. Just 18 hours prior to the Connecticut massacre of 20 children, the 20th pit bull child murder was committed- a 2 yr old visiting a relative with mom was killed by a pitbull. And in the last seven weeks, pits have murdered a child every 12 days. We’ve all sobbed and lamented about the deaths of the school children in Connecticut, as we should. We should be ashamed as a nation that this has been allowed to happen. Yet, 20 children this past year, and the year before, and the year before, were brutally killed by pit bulls. Did the president speak at their funerals, did he even send a card? Did the whole nation mourn for these children murdered by pit bulls? Where is the shame for these pit bull murders.
    What is the difference here? Why do the children in Connecticut rate more than those children who were murdered, brutally, by pit bulls? Why isn’t this issue garnering the same attention? Tell Obama to acknowledge and comfort these FORGOTTEN families, too, and send them your prayers.
