As my friend said "Into every generation a slayer is born".

Hope you get the reference...Buffy The Vampire Slayer.

She has got it.

Her life was most definitely "altered."

I'm afraid we will "lionize" her and anoint her with leadership she is not totally ready to handle...

let her lead in her own way and time...don't put her on a pedastool that the repubs can pull out from under her...

I think she's great and very inspiring, but I do worry that too many are making her into a political leader and placing all of their hopes in her when all she really is is a kid who's been through a horrible tragedy and is turning her grief into action.

Let's be careful not to place her on a pedestal that's too high for her to get down from.

I thought it ended with Willow using her powers to make all of the potential slayers becoming slayers and then they had a huge fight with the demons and vampires.

Based on the women's march and the march for our lives, I think we have a lot of slayers right now.
