Stories like this should never exist.
Innocent children should never be shot at or feel in danger. But none of us should.
Please take the time to think about all of these grieving parents and families.
So many are so quick to say, "that's it, get rid of the guns"
But is that REALLY the issue???
If you take away guns, people will find other means. The deadliest US school shooting was in Michigan in 1927 and he made homemade bombs...
The issue is how we deal with mental illness. These men and women who start off as innocent children too, need help. A woman came out and wrote a story about how her son is just like these other kids who then turn into shooters... and she gets no help from the schools, doctors, our healthcare system...
Do I also agree that gun control could and should be tighter?? Yes absolutely. But I think people are focusing on this instead of the real problem.
How do we stop people from wanting to kill innocent people?
Please keep those families in your thoughts and prayers as many of their funerals are today.
I agree 100% I feel awful for the parents that lost their children in this way and now have to watch our media turn this awful event into an opportunity to push another agenda. I wish more people would focus on the mental illness aspect and focus on how to help these parents and their community recover from this.
