Heartbreak and outrage

We are all in mourning today. I feel heartbroken by the latest terrorist atrocity in Manchester—and outraged that there are monsters among us capable of such cruelty. I will never understand how anyone could aim their evil at the innocent, and it is all the more shocking when children are deliberately targeted. Our sympathy and prayers are with our British brethren. Our former motherland remains very dear to Americans. There is some consolation in knowing that such tragedies always show people at their best, strangers helping strangers, sharing their grief and embracing their common humanity, as in the story below.
