Hats off to the Law enforcement

I can’t stress the immense amount of hurt I feel towards the security officer who passed away after the Boston Bombing, and the families that have suffered through the destruction of these two young men. As I watch CNN live, the anxiety of this circumstance is definitely high. I break for the families that are on lockdown, the families who lost a loved one, lost a limb or are still in the hospital.

This is an unacceptable behavior and makes everybody uncomfortable because you never know anymore when and what will happen. How someone can cause such destruction is beyond me. I can’t fathom the pain and fear that lie within the city of Boston as they are on lockdown.

I can’t stress my appreciation for the FBI, Police, CIA, SWAT, and firefighters that are involved with this case. The fact that this isn’t a safe search has got to be a hard task for them and the families involved. Honestly all I can think about was how I would respond if in this particular situation. If this was my son, or my husband I would go crazy. My husband is a runner so I can’t begin to understand how such an innocent event could bring such disaster. I believe someone can’t be in their right mind to follow through with such a task. Heartbreaking!

I can’t believe nor do we fully understand the great lengths our law enforcement goes to in order to keep our country safe and find people who are threats to our nation. I don’t think we can begin to understand what goes on behind the scenes, but I am very appreciative and thankful for the work that is put in for our safety. It’s easy to take for granted the frustrations in our country as well, but when terror comes, reality hits and thankfulness sets in.

Our country will be in my prayers as we continue the hunt. I pray they find the last suspect today/tonight so that we can rest and the city can be released from lockdown. Lord protect our country!
