So Sad about Shooting at USHMM

As many of you know, my last employer was the United States Holocaust Memorial Museum. I was so sad to hear about the shooting and death of the security guard because of the white supremacist crazy nut.

I did not know the guard or recognize him, but one of the things I learned in my orientation at USHMM is that their security was top notch. They were wayyyy ahead of the game pre-9/11. In fact, after 9/11 many of the other Federal agencies came to USHMM to help up date their security.

Even though its been 2 years since I've worked there, I have a great deal of respect for the work that has been/being done there. I am so, so sad for the staff. I can't wrap my mind around the hate this stupid gunman has.

If you ever get a chance to visit the museum, I highly recommend it.
