WASHINGTON — Good morning. This is Senator Amy Klobuchar from Minnesota.I first extend my deepest sympathies to the families and friends of those so tragically killed and wounded this week at Virginia Tech.Among those who died: an engineering professor and Holocaust survivor who barricaded the door to his classroom to save the lives of his students. And a 19-year-old girl who grew up in the foothills of the Shenandoah Mountains and dreamed of becoming a veterinarian.As a former prosecutor, I learned early on that whenever someone dies from unconscionable violence, their families and those who loved them suffer more then we can ever imagine. All of us are affected as we step back and mourn the senseless loss of so many innocent lives.Knowing that the victims could have been anyone's children, it reminds us that ours is a country built on the simple idea that we wrap our arms around those who suffer and sacrifice in times of need — and through even the worst of tragedies, we join together — because what unites us is always stronger than what divides us.This spirit of cooperation inspires the very best in each one of us — and it inspires the very best in our nation.
