Taylor

What happened this past weekend was very unnessary. To take away something that doesn't belong to you is more than a crime, but a sin. I feel that it is not right nor is it correct to harm a person that has never done anything to hurt you. What makes a person want to take away someone life in the first place. I was shocked when I first heard the news about Talyor Bradford. I was here on campus just two hours before with my son. I just keep wondering what would have happened if I would have tried to leave two hours later then what I did. My son and I could have been the ones to have gotten shot instead of Taylor. I stand with all my fellow classmates and the entire student body as we try to deal with this unfortunate accident. My prayer's go out to the entire Bradford family. I didn't feel any better when I found out that he was a football player. The first person that came to mind was Kenan. At the time he was the only football player that I knew. Losing a classmate is very painful. I have lost several over the years and I would do just about anything to get them back. As I sat in silence watching the news my heart begin to weight a ton. I very strong when it comes to death but I never thought that it could happen here on campus. I didn't know Taylor on a personal basis but it felt as if I did. To be stupid enough to take someone's life is just plain crazy. To me his was just another student but to most he was a friend and family. It could have been anyone that was on this campus that had their life taken away. Just thinking about makes me mad. It makes no sense to just up a kill someone. Things like this happen when you least expect them to and I wish that their was something that could be done about it. Life is to precious for someone to decide that you don't need it anymore. Eventhough this is a sad occasion, I believe deep down that maybe it was just his time to go but not in this senseless way.
