Thank you.
I would like to address Mr. Wamback first.
Mr. Wamback, I think you have experienced a terrible tragedy in your life. It is still palpable today. First, I would like to offer you an expression of my own sincere sympathy in addition to those you have been given in your life.
I have been lucky, since nothing like that has happened to me, and my children are my greatest joy. I haven't checked, but I think that everyone here is a parent. Personally, I have been a grandparent for nearly a year; my daughter has made me happy by bringing twins into this world. My son has just informed me that his wife is pregnant. You can be sure that if anyone touched those children, you would have to hold me back, because I don't think I could control myself. I have tremendous sympathy for you. Although I have never experienced such very profound suffering, I have no difficulty imagining it.
Like us, you will agree that we will never completely put an end to crime and youth crime. That is a fact of life. Isn't that right?
