RIP Charlie Kirk. It doesn’t matter what your opinion is of Charlie or his politics if you don’t view this as one of the darkest days in American history than you are part of the problem.
All these heart breaking tragedies happening from plane crashes to school shootings and we got idiots out here worrying about whether the pilots were black, white, trans or they/them. Stop the madness and pray for the victims and their families.
If your Christianity causes you to be offended by someone asking the most powerful person in the country to be merciful towards the powerless, then you have deeply, deeply misunderstood the teachings of Jesus Christ.
There is no such thing as abortion in the 9th month and no doctor executes babies after birth. That is not written in any policy. Donald Trump is a liar. This is insane. #PresidentialDebate2024
With the latest mass shooting at the Allen Premium Outlets mall in Allen, Texas, we are reminded that this vicious cycle is just repeating itself yet again.
That cycles goes as follows:
- Mass shooting leaves people dead.
- Politicians either offer 'thoughts and prayers," they demand gun control, or they blame a particular group of people.
- Days or weeks go by and the news cycle changes.
- Nothing get done.
- Cycle repeats.
We aren't getting anywhere because politicians can't agree on a solution and they'd rather point fingers at one another than put an end to the cycle.
There are a lot of problems from my point of view. They include:
1) Ease of getting a gun.
2) Mental healthcare in America.
3) Too many people feel that society has let them down.
4) Too many children are being raised by parents who are too busy with other things.
5) Too many children are not taught about the damage they do when they tease other children.
There isn't just one simple fix. This is a multi-faceted issue and as Americans we should be trying to work together instead of alienate each other.
One of the most underrated professions in America is nursing.
Nurses don't just help you live, they make you want to live.
This National Nurses Week, let's celebrate and appreciate all they do to provide compassionate care.
