Title: School shooting too close
Post by: NASA on November 02, 2009, 09:51:20 PM
Last Friday night, a small group of students were standing around in front of Wilson high school, after the Homecoming football game, waiting for their parents to pick them up.  Drive-by gang bangers shot into the crowd.  Another Honor Student killed.  My grandson was standing with the group.  He and another boy volunteered to go to the corner store and get some sodas for the group.  He missed being killed by just 120 seconds.  He's 16 and a nervous wreck.

I feel your pain literally. Where I group up, garbage like that was a daily occurrence.
It's hard to believe it can become numbing, but it does.

Many times I wanted to set on a roof top at night and rid the community of these bastards, but you only become part of it all.
I finally bailed and headed to rural America.

...but it's only a matter of time.
