No one will ever know for sure how many lives were saved by the three unarmed adults in this incident. Look at it this way. If each of them only distracted the shooter for 30 seconds, how many fewer children were shot while the shooter was dealing with the adult. They are the true hero's.

Where is the trans representation at this vigil?

[ArcherDiesel]

At this point I don’t think me or any parent should be surprised if our kids will be the next victims of a school shooting. I’m almost expecting the phone call.

Vigils will not prevent the next shooting.

A preacher was once disturbed by the loss of a baby child in his congregation that belonged to a young couple in his congregation. Seeing the despair of the young couple, the minister questioned God, as to why he allowed the death of their child.

Weeks later the minister was visiting a farm with sheep, and saw the farmer tending the sheep. The farmer/shepherd led the flock to a creek swollen by recent storms with rapid moving water. The flocks instinct was to not cross the swollen creek. But the farmer/shepherd had to get the flock to the other side where they could graze and eat their fill.

Then the minister saw the farmer/shepherd pick up a young baby lamb and carry it through the swollen creek to the other side. He place the baby lamb on the opposite shore bank where it cried out to it's mother. The mother sheep's instincts had been not to cross the swollen creek, but when she heard the cries of her baby lamb on the other bank, maternal instincts took over and she braved the rapid moving waters to get to her baby lamb.

The minister then watch in amazement as the rest of the flock began to follow the mother sheep to the other side where her baby lamb was.

At once, the minister understood God's answer, the baby child was allowed to be taken so that the young parents in the congregation would follow, and in doing so lead others to the other side of the Eternal shore.

The loss of children at Covenant Church in Nashville, TN is tragic, but HOPE is not lost. My Father was killed by a drunk driver when I was only 2 weeks old. It's been a great desire since childhood, and still is, to reach the Eternal shore where he already is.

While the gun debate rages on, the least we can do is get the schools protected

It’s not about this sicko was a trans it’s the fact that this miserable, confused, twisted minded individual took innocent lives for NO GOOD REASON at all!!!
There are good hearted Trans ppl that would not have thought about doing something such as hateful, disgusting & horrible crime as this period.

Will it ever end ever…It’s a sad day to send your kids to school and have this happen. School should stay on line because of all this, I know if I had a kid in school I would want that.
