They Walk Among Us

in News, politics

According to the AP, in Oklahoma a candidate for state superintendent of schools “wants thick used textbooks placed under every student’s desk so they can use them for self-defense during school shootings.”

“People might think it’s kind of weird, crazy,” said Republican Bill Crozier of Union City, a teacher and former Air Force security officer. “It is a practical thing; it’s something you can do. It might be a way to deflect those bullets until police go there.”

“You don’t know where they’re going to happen. You don’t know when they’re going to happen. There ought to be some kind of plan to react to it,” Crozier said.

It’s not a crime to cherish life. Do what you can to survive, for we’re still stumbling around in the dark ages, trying to survive. And for Pete’s sake, act like a human and stop the ‘friggin violence!
If we all have to live here, then we all have to GET ALONG!
It’s the quiet ones, you have to worry about, for they’re generally the ones who weren’t able to integrate their emotions into their daily lives. If more people talked and analyzed their feelings more, then perhaps the “world” would mature to a whole new level.
Thanks,

Amen on integrating emotions. Too many people have too much bottled up inside.
