sirens

I got two of my really good friends arrested.
I feel terrible.
I can't sleep.
I can't stop crying.
I don't know what to do with myself.
But I don't understand why they did it.
They said it was a joke, but a gun threat?
I don't understand how one of them could look me straight in the eye after I told him what was happening and said "the person who did that is a psycho," and then have the nerve to ask me to take him with me when I left.
I also don't understand how people can just make light of it now.
Sure it was a prank.
And sure it didn't happen and no one was shot, but what if it really did happen?
What if someone these people were closest to was shot and killed?
Would they be joking about it?
Why can't people think things through completely instead of being so immature?
I don't get how they cannot grasp the fact that life is so fragile and could be gone in a second.
