WE MUST FORGIVE!!!

Kia Scherr, a Virginia woman whose husband and daughter were gunned down in last week's terror attacks in India says the attackers should be forgiven.

Alan Scherr, 58, and Naomi Scherr, 13, were among 25 people who had traveled to India for a meditation retreat with Virginia-based spiritual group Synchronicity Foundation, to which the Scherrs belonged.

The father and daughter were found fatally shot in a restaurant in Mumbai's Oberoi Hotel, where the group was staying.

Kia Scherr, who didn't go on the trip, said at a news conference in Faber, Virginia, she is experiencing the "deepest grief and pain I have ever known”.

“We must send them our love, forgiveness and compassion. As Jesus Christ said long ago, they know not what they do. They are in ignorance, and they are completely shrouded and clouded by fear, and we must show that love is possible and love overpowers fear. So that's my choice."
