| What Was The Shooting In Texas |
The Big Bang Theory (of Gun Violence, Not Sheldon Cooper)
On May 24, 2022, something terrible happened in Uvalde, Texas. A young man, armed with a weapon that could probably take down a small army, decided to turn a school into a warzone. The result? Nineteen innocent children and two teachers lost their lives. It’s the kind of news that makes you question humanity’s collective IQ.
QuickTip: Read with curiosity — ask ‘why’ often.
More Questions Than Answers
This tragedy, like a really bad horror movie, has left us with more questions than answers. How could this happen? Why do we prioritize guns over human lives? And why is it so hard to enact sensible gun control laws? These are the kind of questions that keep you up at night.
QuickTip: Look for contrasts — they reveal insights.

What Can We Do?
Okay, enough with the doom and gloom. Let’s talk about what we can do. First and foremost, we need to demand action from our elected officials. We need stricter gun laws, better mental health support, and a society that prioritizes the lives of its citizens over the profits of the gun industry.
Reminder: Take a short break if the post feels long.
Second, we need to come together as a community. Support survivors, honor the victims, and work towards a future where this kind of tragedy is a thing of the past. It’s going to take time, but together, we can make a difference.
