I can’t be the only one who feels a connection between our extreme need for the return of all the victims with ‘survivors’ guilt.’    How many times have I felt it myself – the sense that it could have been me, that I did not do enough to protect these people.  I even recognized the signs – the explosive balloons and occasional flying over the towns in the south that signaled the ongoing hatred, clearly tests of our weakness.  But I demonstrated only against the fact that our voice was being taken away, not that the government wasn’t functioning to protect us.
