And does anyone say, where is the spokesperson for the white community? What a ridiculous thing to say, as if there is a spokesperson for the black community or the white community. It is OUR community. It is not an urban or suburban problem. It is OUR problem. We are all living with fear and anger. How do we teach our children to react? How do we define ourselves as adults [1]?
We are feeding the message to everyone that guns will solve the problem. We have to find better answers [2] to our FEAR and our ANGER. Look for the commonality not the differences. We need to raise better parents. And if the parents aren't there, we need to step up to that challenge as a community. Look into the faces of these kids--and tell me you didn't go through a period of trying to challenge authority and to feel your strength by intimidating others.
