America's Tragedy as seen by the World

Great to be back in the good ole USA!!!!!!!
After looking at these pics (thanks Bob) I want to share my experience.

I heard about Tuesday's tragedy from the streets of Ireland. The people there were truly heartbroken. Strangers in stores and pubs would recognize me as American and shared with me their sympathy towards those lost. Friday was declared a “day of mourning”. Nearly every business was closed and churches held a noon service throughout the island to over capacity crowds.

It was an awesome site to witness such love from one country for another.

 

Thanks Bob for the touching pics.

 

I hope that, if nothing else, this tragedy teaches us Americans to display the same affection and sympathy to those in other countries afflicted by disasters and terrorism. A better world might just come out of this after all...
