Thousands mourn at funeral for 9-year-old Christina Green

This article was all about a 9 year old girl named Christina Green, who was shot and killed on January 8, 2011, by Jared Laughner, who shot several others. The article describes the funeral, and some of what was said, and played.

First off I would like to extend my deepest sympathies to the family and friends of Christina Green, and anyone else effected by the shooting rampage. I have no idea what could possess someone to do something so horrific, and hurtful. I read another article that stated that Jared Laughner's "friends" say that Jared had been acting weird, and had been for some time. The parents also said that their relationship with Jared was "strained," and yet they have no idea why he did it. Here's my advice to his parents. Step one: get a clue. Step two: pay attention to your son, it doesn't matter if he's 3 or 30, he's still your son. Step three: take some action, maybe if you had done something, he wouldn't have gone and shot up a bunch of people. The way I see it is that Christina didn't have to die. The victims didn't have to be hurt. Jared didn't have to do what he did. But the lack of parenting lead him to it. Yes, Jared is guilty, but his parents are too, not exactly of murder, but they ignored the signs of whatever lead to the death of a girl, who had a lot to live for.
