Mere anarchy is loosed upon the world,
The blood-dimmed tide is loosed, and everywhere
The ceremony of innocence is drowned;
The best lack all conviction, while the worst
Are full of passionate intensity.
W.B. Yeats, from The Second Coming
Remember Him

Donald R. McClarey
Cradle Catholic. Active in the pro-life movement since 1973. Father of three, one in Heaven, and happily married for 43 years. Small town lawyer and amateur historian. Former president of the board of directors of the local crisis pregnancy center for a decade.
God is Love and He is surrounding Fletcher with himself.
My heart breaks for the family.
Fletcher Merkel did not need to die. Those responsible for Fletcher Merkel’s death must be held for retribution.
As citizens of the state murderers are brought to Justice by their citizenship and are executed by their own power of attorney.
Christ said: “Anyone who scandalizes one of these little ones must put a millstone about his neck and drown in the depts of the sea.”
“Do unto others as you would be done unto.”
Those who blithely ignore Justice must be put to the ignominy of non-personhood and be treated as they treated their victims.
The murderer is already being treated as the victim, for if Catholics and innocent children were not alive, the murderer would not have to murder them. You see, it is all the murdered victim’s fault for being born. The sovereign personhood of Fletcher Merkel cries out to God for Justice. And God will answer quickly for God is the God of life.
“You see, it is all the murdered victim’s fault for being born.”
It’s sickening Mary De Voe.
Yet this is where we are. Your right. The endless dance of the Left being lead by the fiddle master, Satan, is enough to make one vomit. Our hope is in the Lord.
Just maybe the people who are fully awake and not woke, will help to gather neighbors that are on the fence, and together we will assist God in turning this tragedy into a change for the better via legislation.
Otherwise what else can be done?
Things must change.
Pride is a killer…in more ways than one.
God help us.
I will remember him and the other victims with my red, white and blue ribbon fixed to my badge.
If and when I’m asked about the ribbon I’ll simply explain that it’s in remembrance of the victims that were slain by a mentally ill individual this week. May their families be healed and comforted.
Yes Philip:
My life too is rent.
I can forgive my killer. I cannot forgive your killer or Fletcher Merkel’s killer without becoming an accessory after the fact, aiding and abetting, giving aid and comfort to the enemy.
This killer must face a firing squad and be put to death by 19 bullets and no less.
Our Lady of Fatima foretold a third world war of unimaginable proportions unless we pray the rosary.
God help us all.
TNYT garbage in garbage out.
And where is our deterrence? It works.
Rest in Gods Eternal Peace beautiful Fletcher. Grant your parents His Grace and comfort as they mourn your loss. Pray for them and for us all.

Remember her as well.
According to the New York Post, Fletcher and Harper are the two kids killed in the attack. Apparently, they were killed sitting in the pews before anyone could take cover under the pews, as most afterwards did.
It’s very frustrating to me that I can find the name of the killer everywhere, but had to dig to find the names of these two children.
May they rest in peace, though I suspect they may already have “St” in front of their names. They didn’t explicitly assent to a martyr’s death, but they were certainly killed for their faith and no other reason.
