In the immortal words (sorta) of Muhammad Ali “"I ain't got no quarrel with those Venezuelans."

A deeply sad morning, with heartbreaking mass killings in Providence & Sydney.
Innocent students killed in a classroom. At least 11 people by gunmen at a Hanukkah celebration.
Too many guns here. Frightening levels of antisemitism globally. So much senseless violence & hate.

I’m on vacation and very intentionally not looking at news much. But I woke up to see the horror of the terror attack at the Hanukkah celebration in Australia.
