Another day.
Another newspaper article with a face I know all too well.

This time it was David Cady. 25 years old; quiet, intelligent, peaceful, murdered.

Shot three times.

Dead.

How is it even possible?  So young, so alive, with so much promise, now so senselessly dead.

David, the last person in the world you’d expect to be murdered, was shot to death. 

He lived in New Mexico, though from Watkins originally; studying astrophysics(why am I not surprised that David wound up in astrophysics?), shot by a neighbor after David confronted him over the mistreatment of animals.  Why does that not surprise me, either?  There was little that bothered him more than injustice, more than mistreatment of the innocent and helpless.

And I am left with the age old question, the one for which there are no answers…

Why?
