I am heartbroken to hear of the latest tragedy in Texas, already at least 27 dead. My heart goes out to all their loved ones. I am also very angry--not just over this latest incident, but over all of them. And I know we can't get political so I can't say what I want to say, but I need to put my frustration, anger, and sadness towards doing something productive. I am not sure what that is. Can we design light weight bullet proof vests and hats for our children going off to school? If that sounds ridiculous, I don't think it's any more so than previous suggestions of arming our teachers.
What about security in churches? If you attend church, has yours done anything for added security? Any cameras, monitoring of doors, or employing security guards? Because as it stands right now, ours is a security nightmare...as in there is absolutely no prevention in place, and all the parishioners sit with their backs to the entrances.
Everyone says, "I refuse to live my life in fear", and I get it. But I also refuse to accept we have to freaking get used to living get this way, and not change a thing about how we are handling things.
