-- Using April 1st as an excuse to post fake headlines, like the resurrection of Kissinger while he is still fortunately dead, will result in the poster being thrown in the gamer gulag and be sentenced to play and beat trashy mobile games like 'Raid: Shadow Legends' in order to be rehabilitated back into general society. --

I hate that i read that headline.
From the article
"I was able to walk around campus and feel safe, and here we are yet again and that was taken from me for a second time."
America has utterly failed its children. I don't know why school shootings are such a sensitive thing for me, but I find them to be uniquely vile in America's cabinet of misery. For me, my rage comes from the fact there are a multitude of REAL and CONCERTE material changes we can make both intuitionally in and around school, politically around the lives of children, and socially around our culture and we do literally NOTHING to make changes. We don't even try. It's so maddening that conditions for school shootings have remained the same and the response to school shootings have remained the same. I don't want to give into pessimism but just sickening to say I live in a nation where this happens on a the regular.
I don't have kids, I don't want kids. I however, think kids (young people in general) are cool and desire to have their places and spaces to be free of danger and it upsets to know that we do nothing protect these kids. America loves to freak out about imaginary threats to safety of children and do nothing about the actual existing ones.
Multiple elementary schools have been the targets of mass shootings and nothing was done. My mom and I were talking about this recent one and we had a moment where we were like "Only 3ish people died with less than a dozen wounded, so that's good."
In any functional society, even one person killed in an attack on a school would cause immediate reform. There would be changes made to prevent such an attack from occurring ever again. In the US? It's so normalized, people survive multiple shootings. Schools even experience multiple mass shootings (FSU had one previously in 2014).

Goddamn dude, that's so sad. It's just so damn bleak

I think about that all the time. If we actually have values or morals we would have done something to make sure it never happens again.
