Details unclear if stabbings were burglary motivated.
Nuns were nurse practitioners that helped this rural community.
Their car was found a mile away. What is going on with this crazy world?

Don't know if it's the Kardashian's fault, even though that's one family I cannot stand, but there are a lot of people in this world that are pure evil.

A dark, dark day in our nation. Motive could have been thinking these two nurse practitioners might carry drugs, or it could be a junkie who'd kill for $2 and a bottle of Tylenol (but we're told they are 'non-violent' addicts). Or.....it could be a hate crime against Catholic Christians.

To me, the quoted paragraphs below say a lot but I don't think most people will note it, being far below the fold and then sandwiched between a map and giant photo captioned, "Should swimming with dolphins be banned" (like this is important in light of the story at hand).

"In a video posted on the Sisters of Charity of Nazareth website, Merrill talked about providing health care in a county where the poverty rate is 44%, and the median household income among the 18,000 residents is about $21,400.

"Many people have no health insurance because they can't afford the premiums," she said in the video. "They make minimum wage."

No one else will see them, she said.

The Clarion-Ledger of Jackson reported that Dr. Elias Abboud, the clinic owner, said the sisters raised money to care for the poor.

"They would treat them for free," he said.

What do you suppose the motive was?

Revenge, sex or money?

Possibly revenge for him thinking that the nuns did not do enough for a close family member, although, being raised Catholic, I can't see that. Being nuns, I don't think it would have been for sex, money or drugs; nothing I've read in any report so far alludes to that. Something just went off in that evil mind and he saw an opportunity to kill two white nuns.

Evil knows no race. It just happens because of many combinations of things.

One of the most evil regimes was that of Nazi Germany then also that of Stalin's Soviet Union.

I totally agree.

I'm thinking that not all do.

Making a go of life is not easy. We all know that. Living within your means, working harder, longer, making your own breaks, saving money toward a goal...gets you where you're goin'.

I only know what I know and I don't hate or dislike anyone because of the color of their skin. I haven't done anything wrong by being born this color. The goal is up ahead for all of us. For some it is harder. It has always been like that and it always will be. We are not created equal, but we are all created valuable.

Man charged in slaying of 2 nuns (http://www.clarionledger.com/story/news/local/2016/08/27/man-charged-capital-murder-nun-slayings/89467046/)

Looks like they are still processing the evidence. You always want them to be as careful as possible with this.

It's righteous that no one jump to conclusions about motive. It's unfortunate many in our society are sinful in their efforts to exploit, which would be the case if minutiae were different.

God Bless their wonderful souls.
