It's time to stop offering "thoughts and prayers" in response to tragedies. While it may seem like a kind gesture, it's actually an empty one that does nothing to solve the problem at hand.

Offering thoughts and prayers is not a substitute for taking meaningful action to prevent tragedies from happening in the first place. We need to start having difficult conversations and working towards real solutions instead of relying on hollow gestures.

Furthermore, for many people, offering thoughts and prayers can come across as insensitive and dismissive. It's important to consider how your words may be received by those who have been directly impacted by a tragedy.

Let's move beyond "thoughts and prayers" and towards real action to make the world a safer and better place for everyone.

tennessee is arming teachers because of the crisis of school shootings.

an overwhelming majority of firearms used in school shootings have clearly been documented to be obtained completely legally, though.

we’re giving guns to the victims of the people we’ve given guns to.

america has more shame on its face than blood on its hands, abso fucking lutely insane. the united states of america is killing itself stuck in the delusion of its nonexistent “freedom”.

it’s not fucking freedom to constantly be waiting under the possibility of a massacre your country permits.

Refusing to adequately react to the ongoing epidemic of gun violence? There's an app for that!My latest in today's Los Angeles Times:

I don’t know, I just think reading about a deadly shooting and then in the next second having someone shill products to me makes me want to scream.

i wrote this shortly after Ulvade

By the day the I was born there already had been 332 school shootings

When I started elementary school there had been 358 school shooting

i was in the 5th grade when shooting at Sandy Hook Elementary School in CT happened

those kids were my age

i think everyone lost their innocence that day

i was 16, a junior in hs when 17 students and faculty were killed in Parkland FL

Every state has had at least one shooting in 2022 alone

The numbers keep rising

Children keep dying

They're talking about raising the age to buy a weapon to 21 like that will change anything

the majority of shooters get weapons legally

the majority of shooters are underage

the majority of shooters know the drills

the majority of shooters know where we are hiding

31% of public mass shootings happen in a country with 5% of the global population

"people kill people"

if people kill people why give them guns

why give them the tools to do so

if you cant trust someone to not commit mass murder why give them the gun in the first place

this isnt new

the day America lost its respect for its people was the day we decided that guns were more important than children

"hide under someone" was what my mom told me after parkland

we shouldn't have to worry about this

i shouldnt have to worry about being killed in a place that i should be safe in

teachers shouldn't have to watch their students die

children in Uvalde were decapitated

the graphic imagry of these children dying are never shown but do you think they should be?

the students that were there already had seen it

what does it take?

what will it take?

why aren't you listening to us?
