    From @usatodayopinion: School shootings, however horrific, are not the new normal. Santa Fe killings are part of a bloody contagion that will pass.https://usat.ly/2k7NHSF

        Columbine happened almost 20 years ago. When’s this supposed to “pass” exactly? Making it sound like a bad case of diarrhea. #DeleteThis

        Tell that to the kids who've been injured, the kids who've seen their friends shot and die before their eyes and the parents whose children will never come home from school. Chances are they all tell you to shove your opinion where the sun doesn't shine.

        Who the hell wrote this?? Basically if the shooters a white American....let's not overreact. But if they are of any other race....let's shutdown the border and ban entire countries. The worst crap I have read in my life and totally absent of human decency on a day like today!

        That's not what if feels like. After 9/11 We took many precautions so it would not happen again. But we are doing absolutely nothing about school shootings

        You have to be kidding. Did I just see that you are having no compassion for what happened today? Who ever wrote this should be put before a firing squad. Seriously.
