Look, take a deep breath. Make a hashtag. It'll be ok. Here are a few ideas. School security & layout, mental health resources, enforcement of existing legislation and access to firearms. I am sure that there are opportunities for improvement in each of these areas. "Take a deep breath, It'll be OK" is a really lazy response. Remember when a bunch of kiddos got mowed down 3 months ago? We need to do something, and there many avenues to do so beyond a !@#$ing hashtag. Edited May 18, 2018 by TheElectricCompany 5 2

I am 100% all for that but there is way too much distraction going on for anyone to grow a pair of balls and do anything about what's going on because it's too god damn easy to be a victim and the payoff is too good damn high. Great post 1

My other favorite take on this subject is “well there’s no easy answer, so let’s do nothing”.

I also stopped showing up.

Augie Posted May 18, 2018 Posted May 18, 2018 So many families started off as a perfectly normal day, then they got their worlds rocked forever. As one friend who lost a child said to us, life is forever divided into “before” and “after”. Hug your loved ones! 4 2

If you're relying on politicians to fix anything you're going to be waiting for a long time. It needs to start at home. There needs to be structure and accountability from day one. Kids need to be taught to respect themselves and one another. Look up to good role models not some ****head Kardasian who has 50 million instagram followers for no good reason except for being famous. 1

I agree though, my sole voice of reason will not be enough and frankly, it's going to get a hell of a lot worse because like you say, saying something, MEANS NOTHING!!
