My nephew attended the funeral of a fifteen year old girl who got in a fight with two other girls at a school basketball game. Security escorted the three girls outside. The one protesting with her family that it was not safe for her to be outside with the two other young women as one or both may be armed. She was forced out despite the protests. She was shot and killed outside the gymnasium. The two other young women were arrested for her murder.

The story link is that shots were fired outside at her funeral, fourtunately no one was hurt.

The story also mentions gun violence.

I’m going to mention human violence and what has happened to society. A police office made a statement how it wasn’t long ago high school boys had deer rifles in the trunks of their cars and there was no trouble.

21 wounded. Including 9 children. Brandon immediately wants an assailant weapons ban.

“President Joe Biden said the shooting “cuts deep in the American soul” and called on people to press Congress to ban assault weapons, to limit high-capacity gun magazines and for other gun measures that have been rejected by Republicans.

“Today’s events should move us, shock us, shame us into acting. What are we waiting for?” he said.

Biden noted that Wednesday was the anniversary of the 2018 high schoool shooting in Parkland, Florida, that killed 17 people and said there have been more mass shootings in 2024 “than there have been days in the year.””
