Shame
So there was another mass shooting. It's crazy how often this has been happening recently. I'll never be able to figure out how anybody can take a life, especially a child. Hopefully the next person who feels this way will find a nice bridge to jump from. I can only imagine what the parents are going though right now. Call me lame but that's part of the reason why I don't show my face much. It's not safe anymore. I remember when I was a youngster we could walk around the neighborhood on Halloween. That has changed because anybody can get a gun. If everybody has a mask on, how do you tell who is friend or foe? I don't know anymore. People are losing it. If it gets to the point where a person feels like they're going to kill, why not seek help? Killing innocent victims and then killing yourself is a cowardly way out. I think back to Jovon Belcher. His teammates wanted to paint this picture of what type of person he was. At the end of the day, he was only thinking of himself. Now that child has to grow up without either parent because Jovon got mad. It's laughable saying that. Maybe he should have said, "Hulk smash!!!" and punched the wall. I wish they wouldn't keep painting him like a hero. He's not. No killer is a hero. This clown that shot up the school today knew that his life was over after everything he did. It would have been to see him go to jail and see what a real killer is. I'm sure he didn't want to see what would happen. I'm not sure how I feel about this whole thing. I think I'm more upset than sad. It's not safe anywhere anymore. Schools should be one of the safest places to be. I say that but I remember seeing a gun brought to school in fifth grade. There was an all out brought in high school. I'm from a small town so I can only imagine what happens in larger cities. Nowhere is sacred. Churches have been losing air conditioners every summer. That's as violent as it gets. No air in this southern heat. I don't know how we fix this problem. I hate when this becomes a political issue instead of thinking about the kids. They never even got the chance to experience life. Everyday is a blessing, but it's becoming more dangerous to walk the streets everyday.
