You have valid points Rose, you really do. And sadly you are right, this is getting alot of attention because of where it happened and the socio-economic situation adds alot to it. You are right.

If this had happened in a school that was in a bad section or some lower socio-economic scale many of these people would say, or think in their mind, "thank god I don't live in that kind of place where there is so much crime anyway".

The bottom line now is "no one is truely safe" from this problem.

I can also understand how you can feel "unheard" when people begin to talk about all the ways "guns are used responsibly" yes, it is just the same as them telling you that you don't have a right to feel the way you do.

And that runs very deep and broad for you, I hear you. I am sooo glad that you are sharing your feelings in a place where you can be "heard" and "understood". You truely do deserve to have your personal pain be heard.
