I don't understand

I've been avoiding looking at this news story but finally couldn't avoid it any longer. Maybe it's because the media dubbed her "Grace" or because she's only a little older than Molly, but whenever I start thinking about it I want to cry. I don't understand how people can do this to a child, a baby. Of course, now that I've seen the article, I can't stop thinking about it, and about all the children being abused that we don't know about. Then I wonder why God would allow these innocent little babies to be hurt like this (and maybe it's the lucky ones who don't survive). And no, I don't want to get into a religious debate, because it's not going to make me understand why He doesn't strike these monsters down with a fury like no other. Why can't our society prevent this? It hurts my heart, and no amount of pain that you can inflict on those horrible people - they're not human, really- can take away the horrible things they did to that child.

I completely understand. What they did to that child is beyond comprehension. There are just some really sick people on this planet. Sick and evil.

I can think of some horrible pain to rain down on these types of people, and I do believe I'm the sick bastard that should provide it for them! If the bleeding hearts would leave me alone I'd be more than happy...

I completely agree with what you have to say ... as I agree with what H and Maj. Dad has to say. I'd actually help him in any way I could ... even if it's just to hold the scum down!
I think of my nephews EVERY time I read a horrifying story like this. There is evil out there but, I guess it's up to the people like us to see the evil is taken care of.
I don't get it myself ... how ANYONE could harm a child (or an animal, for that matter). Like you stated though ... "they're not human, not really."
