Sr. Regina Siegfried of the Adorers of the Blood of Christ sent this letter to the St. Louis Post-Dispatch describing some of the neighborhood kindness after an off-duty police officer killed Vonderrit Myers. I've tried to explain to people that the situation here expressed by the word "Ferguson" is a little like the blind men trying to grasp the idea of an elephant by touching only one part of its body.
