Brooklyn boy murdered

Lenore Skenazy, who has been called the world's worst mom, is shaken about the murder of the Brooklyn Orthodox Jewish boy:
It is with an actually, physically aching heart that I report to you the death of an 8-year-old Brooklyn boy, Leiby Kletzky, who disappeared from a short, solo walk yesterday and was later found in a dumpster. ... It is really hard to even suggest that life continue on as normal, but that is what I truly believe is the only response to this crime.
People are overreacting to this crime. I would have thought that this community could take care of the crazies in their own community, but maybe not.

9-11 proved that terrorists can hijack planes and crash them. It did not prove that we have to live in fear.

Skenazy is a breath of fresh air on this subject. Her blog is excellent.
