    Kendrick Castillo was the 2nd American student IN A WEEK to give his life stopping a gunman in our schools. It’s an abomination that politicians have allowed it to come to this. Their inaction and indifference is a grave sin.https://twitter.com/shaunking/status/1126167686814347268 …

    Meet Kendrick Castillo. Just 3 days from graduating high school, he was an award winning member of his robotics team. In yet another school shooting, he bravely lunged at the shooter to save his classmates, & was shot & killed. Shame on this nation for forcing kids to do this. pic.twitter.com/y9sk3Ha100

        Sadly, it will always be too soon to talk about it. Somehow that situation doesn't make an impression on the lawmakers.

        He was actually the third. #UNCC had two brave students die while stopping a shooter there. Regardless, our kids should not have to take on the role of security/law enforcement at school or any other setting.

        As a teacher, this breaks my heart. Im so tired of all of this. Im mad I have a plan thought out if a shooter comes to my school. I shouldnt have to think of that, my students shouldnt have to worry about that EVER. But here we are another week another amazing person lost.

        Next politicians will be suggesting arming school children rather than sensible gun reform.
