Last month a boy named Larry King was murdered for being gay. He asked a fellow male classmate to be his Valentine. Later on, the classmate killed him. The thing is... they were both in the 8th grade. It bothered me that this was a hate crime. But what bothered me most was that this was a crime committed by someone who hasn't even reached high school!
There are several key things I'd like to address in this posting. First, a bit about the recent NIU shootings, and the ramifications for Second Amendment rights and psychiatric drug side effect awareness.
I'm sorry this happened. I don't know what to say without sounding fake, or awkward, so I'll keep it simple.
Robert Greer uttered these words to the Tribune shortly after a shooting at the Northern Illinois University yesterday; "I'm not mad, I'm just sad, and I know that right now what I need to do is comfort my wife."
I live in the state that has had the youngest school shooting ever.
Yes, I live in Michigan and that shooting happened in Flint, Michigan. I believe the child was 6 and he killed a young girl.
I was listening to the radio, and they were talking about these bullet proof backpacks that this guy is making and selling for 175 dollars. He sayd that he got the idea from the Colombine shootings, and people actually pay for them. There were alot of things that struck my mind when i heard this.
