There are certain groups, in charge of the news and narratives, and in charge in general, who keep wanting feel-good answers that make us all feel helpless. They refuse to ask the right questions because it may lead to different answers, answers with actionable solutions.

I don’t feel safe at all where we live.

All who live here know where the guns keeps coming in from, all who live here know of the parents who happened to not notice anything amiss about their children who are planning these awful things, all who live here know what needs to be done.

The district has finally said that both parent and child will be prosecuted. The consequences and “help” needs to come before that.

I don’t feel safe to express any of this on social media because it places me other people’s boxes of “left” and “right”.

How can we be talking about left and right when the children are in the center!
