Too soon. I think it will always be too soon for me to read things like this and definitely too soon for me to see these images. Every few years I'll watch youtube footage of that day and I end up feeling horrible for it. I will never forget that day and the ones that followed, so I don't feel the need to get a closer look at the pain. What good comes of that? When a man gets shot in front of you and his wife is begging you to stop taking pictures, I fail to see the nobility in defying her.
