Perspective: Another School Shooting 10 Killed, 10 Injured…Texas, USA…

It was only three months ago when Stoneman Douglas High in Parkland, USA. … where 17 were killed in the eight school shooting in Florida. The one in Parkland saw a serious look at gun control … many others were wounded.  It is in fact a recurring decimal.  Where and when will this “circus” be played out next?
Suspect shooter Dimitrios  Pagourtzis, described as a loner. This attack appeared to be well planned with explosives planted allegedly by suspect shooter. Based on police reports.

Texas

President Kennedy

At Santa Fe High, Texas, a strange 17 year old gets hold of his father’s shotgun and side arm and went on a shooting spree with a diary entry to kill himself. This aspect to take his life did not happen. He was captured before that plan was executed.  Texas practices by law open carry.  President Kennedy was assassinated in Dallas, Texas, USA. in the 60s. The buck stops at President Trump to enact more gun control. Will he?

Regret

We at Vision cannot say we are not quite sick in the stomach that students could turn on their own school and murder fellow student and teachers. It leaves us shaking our heads in disbelief.  Why all this madness?  It is our perspective that something dramatic has to be done. Do not ask us what that is.
We deeply regret this senseless violence.

Massacres

We hope the American people will find a solution to the vexed issue of school massacres. Students deserve better, much better. What is your perspective?
School should be safe places.
