I hate how whatever his life was like will be used as some sort of excuse for what he did. As if he is entitled to use his pain to lash out to others. It makes me very angry to know he got in his car with the intention to hurt people.

I hope the royal family and everybody else involved don't let this change their usual openness towards others. Queen's day always made me realize we are all the same when we enjoy silly games and act a little ridiculous. Even though I usually stay inside and don't get involved, it's heartwarming to see everybody full of good intentions on this day.
I'm sure we can keep it like that in the future, but not if the media keep pushing the security issue. Which in my opinion had nothing to do with it. If some nut wants to cause harm there is no stopping him. That may be a depressing thought, but I rather use that knowledge to inspire people to make the best of life as much as they can./rant

Wow. Hi. Let me get off my soapbox and say 'nice to meet you'. Your username confused me a bit, since it's my brother's name, but I figured he wouldn't use a Jared-icon *grins*. Have a happy J in return to take attention away from my harsh comment;)
