Imagine walking into school and thinking it’s going to be a ordinary day. Then your teacher tells you to hide in a place where you will be out of sight. The lights turned off. The door locked, barricaded with desks and chairs. While sitting quietly, you hear screaming and yelling. Then you hear gunshots and wonder what’s going on?
A school shooting is happening.
The increased number of school shooting incidents in America during the last two decades has gained public attention. It can effect many people from students, teachers, law enforcement, parents as well as the community. School shootings have happened without people getting hurt to several people being killed. Research says school shooting happen because of children who are suspected to have mental health issues, experienced bullying or have an irregular childhood.
All is takes is 7 pounds of pressure to pull the trigger that will destroy a life, a family and a community.
