My heart goes out to the families of the victims. I can only imagine thegrief they must be feeling.When I reflect on what happened, I can’t help but think about my little sister whoused to attend college at Marquette University.In case you don’t know, Marquette is located in downtown Milwaukee, WI.—rightsmack in the middle of a crime-ridden neighborhood. But by the grace of God, anda lot of prayers from my mother, my sister made it through there without so much asa scratch!Unlike the victims at Virginia Tech, my sister was lucky.But luck doesn’t have to be a factor in situations like this! We live in an imperfectworld. There will ALWAYS be evil among us. Heck, our elected officials can passlaws all day and all night trying to make us safe, but the evil will still be there.It is OUR responsibility to prepare ourselves to be able to fight against this evil.I hope and I pray that YOU never come face to face with the type of evil that thosefolks at Virginia Tech faced. But if you do, I trust you’ll be prepared to face thesituation and survive.Be safe & God Bless,Tim SchmidtMay/June 2007 - Cover PhotographWalt Workman, 46, of San Antonio, Texas, has been a shooter and a huntersince the age of 12, and he has steadily amassed the skills and has collectedthe equipment to become a competent shooter.
