Traumatized by the evening news

Yikes. I don't often watch the local news. Now I remember why I gave it up. Here are the stories from tonight:

-3rd grader pricks at least 19 classmates with a needle. One of the kids was HIV positive.
-Mother stabs two children to death.
-Boy kills shoots ex-girlfriend and kills her father.
-Man dragged under by alligator. Hasn't been seen since.
-14 year old pleads guilty to bludgeoning "friend" to death.

Turns out the first story about a young mother abandoning her baby at a hospital was the good news.

Send Mia to kindergarten? After that broadcast, I don't want to let her out of the house.
