You know what really really SUCKS as a parent...

That's not PC, bro

America is safer now than any point in history.

Teach your kid to be aware of their surroundings and to protect themselves. That's all you can do

Do you have kids?

& how the hell would anyone down-vote my post?

I have two young kids. And this doesn't even move the needle of care one tick.

I grew up during the 70's and 80's worrying about nuclear annihilation.

I grew up at the same time but I never even gave that a second thought. I never took it seriously.

As a proud parent of an openly gay three year old, I have bigger fish to fry than terrorism.


Equal rights!

we have a family plot for burial. There's been a bullet in one of the headstones since the 1940s when a shooting took place in the cemetery.

My grandfather got shot 6 times walking out of his store in the 1960s.

In 1990, my father was in the bloodbath that was NYC where there were 2200 people murdered and he saw shite that made him quit his job and swear off the city for good.

2010, a man takes his family hostage 1.5 miles from my college apartment.

The world isn't safe but it never has been. You know, if good men do nothing.
