    So heartwarming to see Lauren's mother with the photos of the 13 victims in their earlier years. In times of tragedy, bonding with those with extreme common ground is crucial to healing.

      A beautiful way to cope and also to pay tribute. Seeing those simple moments caught on film gives focus to their lives, not just the way they died.

    I remember in school after these shootings would happen. The school teachers would go out of the way to include everyone, and try to rid the bullying. It was a great experience. We all made sure some kids that were picked on, felt some sense of belonging. You don't know what other people are going through.

    I'll never forget cause I was in my senior year & on that day at my school (in Va) we had a bomb threat. We had just gotten back to our classes when we got the news ! With the bomb threat we were already scared because it wasn't the only one, it started on our first day of school. I can't really remember how many we had before the day of Columbine shooting! I just remember that we didn't have much time to look at what was happening w/our school but after that day we were getting mad & had more fear about our school. I remember walking in to my history or government class and the tv was on & as I was just ready to sit down the news came on & was going on about the shooting. I took my seat & wasn't about to think straight about anything! My heart just went out to everyone from that school, families, town, and state! Even today I just don't understand why or how someone could take a life(s) like that! 😪💔💔💔 That day will forever be remembered not just by the ppl that saw or lost someone that because a piece is always be missing and no telling the world missed out on from losing the young that would never leave their own mark on the world!

    What I appreciate about 'most' smaller media outlets like 9News is their continuing pursuit of truth and balance; valuing and reporting the facts without the interference of propaganda and misinformation through monetary gains and virtual viewership.
    Unlike other national news stations where their grand focus is often political symposium on gun control and mental health, this news station exclusively allowed themselves to focus the only thing that truly mattered about this tragedy: its community.
    Understanding who they were allows these folks to finally let their souls be at peace; and with that they are no longer the victims of this heinous tragedy but members of Littleton. This, guys and gals...is acceptance and they always be there in spirit.
    Small towns, rule! ☺

    FORTHER MORE 21:33 It is He Who created the Night and the Day, and the sun and the moon: all (the celestial bodies) swim along, each in its rounded course.
    EXPANDING UNIVERS 51:47 And the heaven We constructed with strength, and indeed, We are [its] expander.
    THE SUM MOVMENT 36:38 And the sun runs [on course] toward its stopping point. That is the determination of the Exalted in Might, the Knowing.
    THE EARTH SHAP 39:5 He created the heavens and the earth in true (proportions): He makes the Night overlap the Day, and the Day overlap the Night: He has subjected the sun and the moon (to His law): Each one follows a course for a time appointed. Is not He the Exalted in Power - He Who forgives again and again?
    78:7 And the mountains as stakes?
    16:15 And He has cast into the earth firmly set mountains, lest it shift with you, and [made] rivers and roads, that you may be guided,
    THERE IS 1100 VERSES DESCRIBE THE CREATION AND THE PEURPOS OF IT AND JUST U NEED TO READ AND DESCOVER. THERE IS NOTHING CAN COME BY CHANCE AS ALLAH GIVE YOU CHALENG TO DISAPROVE THE QURAN AND HE SAID 4:82 Then do they not reflect upon the Qur'an? If it had been from [any] other than Allah, they would have found within it much contradiction.
    ALSO ONTHERE CHALENG FOR YOU ALLAH SAID 2:23 And if you are in doubt about what We have sent down upon Our Servant [Muhammad], then produce a surah the like thereof and call upon your witnesses other than Allah, if you should be truthful.

    AND THIS IS SURAH IF YOU CAN GIVE SOMTHING SIMILLAR TO THIS ( 112:1 Say, "He is Allah, [who is] One,112:2 Allah, the Eternal Refuge.112:3 He neither begets nor is born,112:4 Nor is there to Him any equivalent."
