There was the most disturbing story in the news today. There was a domestic disturbance in the middle of the night last night in Tampa, FL between a 22 year old man and his ex-girlfriend. The girl had a 3 month old baby. The couple was in an argument when the man picked up the baby and threw him down on the ground. He then got in his vehicle to flee the scene and took the infant with him. He was driving along Interstate 275 when he threw the baby out of the window. The baby did not survive.
I am so shocked by this story. Why did a small, helpless child have to get involved in this couple's argument? He lost his life because some dumb person could not control his anger. I do not think that there is a punishment that could even fir this crime.

This is a sad news indeed. The baby wasn't given a chance to live his life. The mother must be so devastated by this. Imagine, she carried him in her womb for 9 months and gave birth to him...and this happened! The boyfriend must have been blinded by his rage. Even if he gets jailed for life, the bottom line is he can never bring back the life of this baby.

That is such a sad story. I hate when children become a victim of their parents violence. You see it everyday on the news.
I hope that guy suffers for that. Well, he will suffer. The lord doesn't take too kindly to people killing off his children.
Just pray for the family.

And believe me, when he's in prison, he'll be suffering there too if other inmates have their way. Let's just say they don't take kindly to people who harm children.

I saw this story earlier today. I was shocked when I read it too. It's pretty horrible. It's a sad state of affairs when people resort to doing something horrible like this even when they are angry. This guy is in for a lot of trouble and pain when gets to prison. And that's from the other inmates if they have their way. If anything can be said about inmates, it's that most, if not all, of them can not stand people who do things to kids like this.

That is soooo sad! I hate to hear of things like this. I always wonder why people end up in a huge fight in the middle of the night. Maybe if they had waited till the next morning, there would have been a different outcome.
