10 Questions in the Wake of Parkland Shooting
17 February 18
ill this time be different?
Will there be marches in the streets?
Will a silent majority of Americans rise up and confront those who offer bromides in the face of bloodshed and excuses in the face of the inexcusable?
Will there be a new movement of parents, teachers, and children - especially children - arguing that our schools not be a place for Russian Roulette?
And if such a movement does materialize what might the elected officials bolstered by the NRA say?
Will the response still be there is nothing we can do?
Will they continue to say now is not the time to politicize this issue?
And if there is a groundswell of activists this time, and the answers they get are the same ones they always get, will the response be loud enough to finally break this circular dynamic?
Will there be retribution at the ballot box?
When did all this become the American way?
