I think this is powerful, but I also think it is fiction.

The artist who is decorating 19 coffins with what the child loved is killing me.

We have to change. This has to be our #1 priority.

Yes but where did you see that? I haven’t seen it anywhere

It's circulating around Facebook. It was originally posted on a page called "Girl du Jour" https://www.facebook.com/page/168753769979032/search/?q=amerie

Amongst the 2000+ comments, it has been revealed that this was not written by the mother of the girl, but was written by another parent at the school as a tribute to those who died. Not sure why she chose to use the actual name of one of the victims, but there it is.

Regardless of who wrote it. That tore me up. It is powerful

It's beautiful and powerful but now I find it extremely weird that she used a real child's name for this. Those poor parents are grieving and don't need someone writing that on their behalf yet.

Americans are bad people. Why are they allowing this?

Americans are NOT bad people which is even why it’s even more perplexing that they are allowing this.

We are pretty selfish. But what I don’t understand is why all these “family first” republicans are not afraid this could happen at their own child’s school. Or they are, but their career comes first so they are willing to roll the dice?

I think the Republicans are just brain-washed and filled with propaganda. But they have always had a “this would never happen to me” attitude about everything.

We are afraid. Go ahead, raise age to buy AR 15s to 21. I think unfortunately, kids like Ramos will find another weapon. Because we have a Constitution with a 2nd Amendment, eventually we will have to roll up our sleeves and get serious about why kids are doing this. Why didn't this happen all the time in the 80s? Why now? What is the cause? How are we growing these monsters.

Because the shooters nowadays were the kids growing up seeing it happen. Adults also over the last few decades. We didn’t grow up seeing mass shootings on tv everyday in the 70s or 80s, it wasn’t a thing. It wasn’t acceptable. There is a generation that has seen this and interpreted it as the way to act out in this world.

Our constitution is changeable and never stagnant. I’m for the banning of all assault weapons and extended magazines. Kids like this shooter exist in all countries and in all cultures. They simply don’t have access to the deadly firearms in other countries. This is indisputable. Before we go to “why?”, we have to go to “how?”. For the sake of our children.

But it’s not happening in the world - just our country. The kids in England, for example, are brought up on American news, American games, American TV and movies, and there are no mass shooting there. Those kids are the same as US kids but they just don’t have access to guns.

We aren't "allowing" this. Most Americans support some form of gun control, if not an outright assault weapons ban. So, miss me with this shit. We aren't "allowing" it, we are being held hostage by a bunch of extremist senators.
