Thoughts

 Some thoughts:

1. News coverage of the recent elementary school shooting focuses on the deceased and their families and on the performance of law enforcement. That’s not enough. They ought to be in the face of every Republican state and US legislator.

2. Republican senators admit that if they support gun control, their constituents would vote them out of office. But if they know something is wrong, isn’t it also their responsibility to educate their constituents?

3. I wish we could get past the worthless practice of needing adjectives like “black,” “Hispanic,” “Muslim,” “gay,” “transgender.” These are the adjectives that remind us of our divisiveness. I want to hear our humanity in adjectives like: compassionate, creative, industriousness, forgiving.
