What a brave man to go forward in the name of his son, hope and peace. He could be filled with hatred and bitterness but he did not choose that path. He is truly inspiring.

Thanks for posting!

He speaks with such intelligence and compassion despite what has to be devastating grief. Anyone who would attack him is deplorable in my book.
