Binghamton Update

As we mourn the loss of life in Binghamton and try to come to terms with Friday's senseless violence, stories have been coming out about the incredible work of the American Civic Association and the survivors of the events. One such story can be found here.

Another piece on CNN shares the story of a grieving husband, whose words remind us of the need to prevent future acts of violence and comfort those in pain, instead of responding with anger and blame:

One of the victims was Omri Yigal's wife, Dolores, Yigal told CNN. A native of the Philippines, she was taking English classes at the center to better herself. Yigal said he had no anger for the shooter. "My thoughts are on my wife. I don't have time for that now," he said. Yigal said he felt "grief for my wife and that's it. She's come so far." He crossed his arms and his eyes to the ground. "So much," he said.
