WTF?!?!?!?!?!

I just happened to come across this story a few mins. ago...

" A man on a rampage fatally stabbed his 17-year-old sister, decapitated his 5-year-old sister in front of a police officer and then headed toward his 9-year-old sister before officers shot him amid what their chief described as "a killing field...Investigators believe that Revelus targeted Samantha, a 17-year-old senior at Milton High School, and fatally stabbed her with a household knife while their grandmother was doing laundry in the basement. At the time, the children's parents were away; their mother is a nurse at a Boston hospital, Wells said...Sarafina, an elementary school student, called 911 just before 5 p.m. An officer on patrol in the neighborhood arrived within a minute, Wells said, and could hear an altercation inside as he reached the second floor. The 911 operator tried to persuade Sarafina to open the door, but when she did not, the officer broke through...As the officer entered the door, he decapitated (Bianca) in front of him," said Wells. "He actually walked into a killing field. He walked into such carnage, as far as the atrocity of it, I've never seen it."

...

What the HELL is goin on with the world??? I mean seriously dude...his 5 yr old sister? I can't even imagine...I'm seriously on the brink of tears right now...and not even because this story is terribly sad...but because I'm terrified. More and more I read stories like this...mother and father killing their kids...boy shooting his pregnant step mother in the head...I can't take it. I miss the years I lived as a child unaware of all the cruel people and things in the world. And the worst part is these people are being killed by the EXACT same people we are trained as children to believe are their to protect us. Honestly...if this is the fate of the world, if this is what we as a human race have become...I don't wanna have any part of it. I did a good deed for someone on Friday just hrs after someone had done one for me. I didn't even realize I was doing the deed until after the fact. but I really felt good about life after that...just knowing that there were still good people out there and that I was still affected by and wanted to cause good...but after reading this story and reflecting on the numerous others I've read...I feel like there isn't enough good deeds in the world to save humanity. And if that's the case...

Heaven help us all.
