friend who was killed in the attack. the person that they know. everyone knows someone. the people here are feeling local, they're feeling that this is their tragedy and they're just trying to surround each other, but the thing that really has stuck with me in my time reporting here is that the pittsburgh community, the pittsburgh jewish community knows what it stands for. at the vigil on sunday night i cannot tell you the loudest applause line was when clergy stood up and talked about welcoming immigrants into this city, talked about hate not being welcome here, talked about the words and rhetoric of politicians that maybe don't create an environment. there is that veiled sense that they are pointing their finger perhaps at some of our elected officials who don't create an environment where all people are respected, but they also know what they stand for and i just cannot tell you how unified the community here is in trying to rally around those who have been directly affected and also to rally around each other, everyone here is experiencing this as a direct loss.
