Chris Sullivan shooting: Makes me wonder about the "real" world around us

You may not know the name Chris Sullivan, but he is an American Hero who is fighting for his life and future in a San Bernardino County hospital this Christmas night.
The 22 year old decorated Army veteran returned to his crib in San Bernardino on Thursday to a heroes welcome.  Less than 18 hours later, Sullivan was shot and at a "homecoming party" at his home that may have left him paralyzed for the rest of his entire life...
He was shot three times.  The suspect fled.  He got away, and a manhunt has begun to track him down.  I spent Christmas Eve with a respected Member of Congress here in Southern California, and we talked about this horrific situation.  I am not going to name the Congress Member I was with, but it has shaken them to their inner core.
I hope all of us can stop and reflect on the violence in our community and what we can do in 2012 to put an end to it once and for all.  I am going to continue to report about shooting deaths here in our community.  We need to bring awareness to the dangers of the situation, and all of us, including Members of Congress have to come up with a plan to stop the killings on our streets once and for all.
Praying for Chris....Praying for his family...Praying for America...
