- Dear Maks and Christia,
-
- This post that you wrote really hit home this past week when I had to attend a
- funeral for a 17 year old young man named Avery Pennant. He was a classmate of
- my daughter at her school. He was playing the video games at an arcade and
- another young man came up to him and said that he wanted to play. Avery told
- him to wait until he had finished and he could have the machine. The boy
- pulled out a gun and shot him in the head. I still can't grasp this killing
- and taking a life for a .25 video game. Maks this article hit the nail on
- the head. We need to get up together with our schools, businesses, and chur-
- ches and get out and make a difference before it's too late. We do need to
- return back to our moral values and to decency. May God continue to bless
- you.
-
- Your sister in Christ,
-
- Shelby--
