Blogging Day of Silence

I think I reacted too soon yesterday (to be fair, I was reacting too soon to people who were reacting in ridiculous ways). So I've decided that I'm going on a blogging day of silence (actually two, I'm not posting until Thursday at the soonest).

I think that the only way to give any kind of respect to the dead after a tragedy is to let your sympathy be known, and then shut up. So that is what I'm doing. I hope that others will join me.

There will be plenty of time to use this terrible incident to further your own political, moral, or social ideas later. Please, for the love of all that is decent and good, do it later.

Thank you.
