As the city of Boston and the nation continue to cope with the aftermath of the horrific bombing that took three lives and injured countless others,some critically, it is important for all of us to be supportive of Bostonians. We are all Americans and are all in this together.
The terrorists want to be able to cause disruptions in our daily lives, that is their trademark. But as has been said before, we cannot and must not allow these terrorists to destroy our way of life. We have to go on doing what we do each and every day, but we must also be alert and vigilant. That will send them a message – you cannot defeat us, and will not defeat us.
Our thoughts and prayers are with those who died, those who were injured and their families and friends. God Bless America and its people today and always.
