He was crying and his dad had his arm around him.
He mouthed the words, where is mom, where is mom, I just want to go home.

(11,098 posts)Now, I'm simply angry. I don't want "thoughts and prayers." I don't want to wait for perfect answers. I want something to be done.
We are surely not so stupid and cold-hearted in the country that this can be accepted as normal.

(11,098 posts)Being numb is part of the problem. If we're numb we don't fight back.
Don't be numb, be angry. When a politician asks for your vote for Congress or the state legislature, ask him/her for a position on common sense gun control - and insist on a real answer.
