Texas high school shooting
At least eight dead, the day before graduation. Suspect in custody was a student at the school.
How many more of these shootings are you going to have before you do something about the Second Amendment?
I fear that many, many more yet. To too many in the U.S. the gun has become an object of worship--which is something that the Childish Gambino video was highlighting with the scenes where guns were treated like sacred objects.
Hell, the vice governor of Texas asserted that the problem was that schools had too many entrances, as if making sure that closing possible avenues of escape would be preferable to actually dealing with the real threat.
I would gladly donate money to a crowdfund campaign to take a civil suit against the russian-backed terrorist organization if the parents, students, and a good team of lawyers were to go in that direction.
“We can never undo what we have done. We can never go back in time. We write history with our decisions and our actions. But we also write history with our responses to those actions. We can leave the pain and the damage in our wake, unattended, or we can do the work of acknowledging and fixing, to whatever extent possible, the harm that we have caused.”
