1. Probably got all excited at the coverage of the shooting in Florida yesterday.

I just don't get this thing the US has with guns. I don't understand Canadians who are into guns either..unless they hunt and that I can understand.

3. That's terrible to hear

Portland is typically a very pleasant, laid-back town. I've really enjoyed my visits there.

4. It is, I used to live across the border over in WA from there

but we'd see crime stories from Portland on the news quite a bit. I always felt more comfortable on the WA side of the Columbia River after dark.
