I couldn’t agree more! My kids are past college age, but I can’t imagine having had to worry about them like that! I’m really glad that I live in Canada and that none of my family is situated in a big city!! I was proud to read how many students helped each other escape, hide and/or helped the wounded. And not just their friends, but strangers too. That part of the story gave me hope for humanity. Nothing seems to have been said (that I’ve read, so far) about what the motivation for the shootings was. As far as I can tell, most of the victims were white college & university students. Not to make light, but did the shooter, a former marine, just have a hate on for country music? Even if he suffered from PTSD, the shooting makes no sense to me...
