Once again America mourns the victims of a school shooting.
The moment I heard about the mass shooting in Parkland Florida, I already knew the rest of the tragic story: A suburban white male would be charged with shooting classmates and teachers at a suburban school.
The pattern has become almost as predictable as politicians offering their «thoughts and prayers.»
These mass shootings are terrorism and the twisted individuals who carry them out are terrorists. It’s time we acknowledged that fact.
