are we just supposed to accept school shootings as a way of life now? its not even april and there's been so many incidents. i dont see or hear this happening anywhere else other than america, and given that it hadn't been the case before, something must have changed to allow it to be the case now.
i dont want to accept it. we shouldn't accept it. but with the media and online communities practically glorifying these events? with websites like encyclopedia dramatica
scoring and
rating how badly william atchisons attempt was?
to sane minds like you, me, and most people, its just a joke and is forgetin hilarious imo, but maybe thats the problem: weak minded people see that. they see how not seriously people are taking it and are like "lol ok"
people like nikolas cruz who get it bad from everyone else most of their life and just when their at their lowest their mom dies and hes moved to live with "a friend" he could have very well not have known very well or even liked all that much. i mean i will assume there was some kind of relationship there since they let him keep his ar-15 in their house, but still he didnt have it easy and it doesnt really seem like his peers gave hime much of a chance either (except for the guy who took him. kudos for keep the door open to those in need)
if youve ever seen williams discord chats. he would message some really memey ironic almost embarrassing paragraphs and then ending them with "help me HAHAHA". a literal cry for help disguised as a troll who hated women that everyone ignored because you're supposed to ignore trolls. except he really was that woman hating guy who felt the need to inflict his pain on others because others probably shunned him away
i think the solution is in the people. people just need to be nicer i guess. just think about your peers more. think about what they're saying, what you're saying to them, and how thats actually truly going to affect them. you dont know what people are going through. its way easier to fake a smile than actually be happy. im not saying be all goody two shoes to everyone you meet because some people (most people) are actual gigantic friends. that doesn't mean that, until you know that for sure about them, you can't genuinely be nice to them and smile at them.
even just a smile. people underestimate what a smile will do to a person
