The streets of heaven are crowded with little angels tonight.

The streets of Boston are too crowded with angels tonight.

"According to Geldof, he wrote the song after reading a telex report at Georgia State University's campus radio station, WRAS, on the shooting spree of 16-year-old Brenda Ann Spencer, who fired at children in a school playground at Grover Cleveland Elementary School in San Diego, California on 29 January 1979, killing two adults and injuring eight children and one police officer."

Totally agree. "I don't like Mondays"? I don't like Mondays either, but I don't like I don't like Mondays even more... And maybe there's a relation between the song and this topic, but I don't know of it, but aside from that, I don't think the music befits this scene. Let the man speak! Stop singing!

It is such a goddamned unadulterated shame that Aaron would never pass an SF-86... cause Christ could we use him on the speechwriting team...

[Molly Ingalls]

This scene never fails to bring me to tears, especially after all that's happened lately. I almost wish it didn't have the music, though - it kind of takes away from the scene's power

Good writers borrow from other writers.

Great writers steal outright.

This is the speech that I thought of with the tragedy of yesterday.

Thank you Aaron Sorkin. At times like this, even now, this provides comfort.

The streets of heaven are too crowded with angels.

"I don't know what's going to be revealed to be behind all of this mayhem. One human insect or a poisonous mass of broken sociopaths.

But here's what I DO know. If it's one person or a HUNDRED people, that number is not even a fraction of a fraction of a fraction of a percent of the population on this planet. You watch the videos of the carnage and there are people running TOWARDS the destruction to help out." -- Patton Oswalt

The streets of Heaven are too crowded with running angels tonight.
