CF has always been a site that welcomes people from different backgrounds and beliefs to participate in discussion and even debate. That is the nature of its ministry. In view of recent events emotions are running very high. We need to remind people of some basic principles in debating on this site. We need to be civil when we express differences in opinion. No personal attacks. Avoid you, your statements. Don't characterize an entire political party with comparisons to Fascism or Communism or other extreme movements that committed atrocities. CF is not the place for broad brush or blanket statements about groups and political parties. Put the broad brushes and blankets away when you come to CF, better yet, put them in the incinerator. Debate had no place for them. We need to remember that people that commit acts of violence represent themselves or a small extreme faction.
10 die in resthome fire

Apparently by someone who lived there? That was what I heard on the news.
Can anyone substantiate this? It's bad enough for anyone to die in a fire, but for the elderly in a rest home, and having it done intentionally is sad, sad, sad.

Police said Thursday that they had obtained a search warrant for a nursing home where a fire killed 10 people, and investigators were hoping to question a 23-year-old resident.
Officers detained the woman hours after the fire broke out Wednesday at Greenwood Health Center, police Lt. Michael Manzi said. But police Chief Bruce Marquis said the woman was undergoing medical care and "thus deemed not stable at this moment."

It is very sad.

What a horrible death for an elderly person. They deserved much much better than that.
Of all the ways to die, I think smoke inhalation and fire would have to rank among the worst.
