From A Concerned Citizen lyrics
Jennifer Elster
*Note:
Consider this. It's not a lifetime commitment to the metal detectors and security guards. Rather, a precaution to take, while we are getting this country together:

I went to the most dangerous high school in New York City
back when much of the Upper West Side was super rough
and people were getting killed all the time.

Life was feared
in the buildings
in the hallways
on the subways
on the streets
etc…


There were shootouts at my school
and I believe it was the first school
in New York City
to implement metal detectors.

The presence of guns are terrifying
no matter who has them.
Teachers in America are a reflection of the people in our country.
There are good and bad. Stable and unstable.
If teachers are armed and they are off and lose their shit
… well.

On the other hand an unstable child can plot to overtake the teacher to get their gun.
You don’t invite the problem in
instead you do your best
to keep it out.
Gun reform in America now.

And hashtag WeNeedMore.
We need to invest in securing our schools with metal detectors,
and security guards,
and vigilance courses for teachers.
And students who are believed to be unstable to be psychologically paid attention to and put into proper facilities for their needs.
And for people to care about one another.

America is cheap and doesn’t want to take care of its people and invest in the safety for the children.
Obviously just by the very existence of guns in schools will bring on more deaths in ways we haven’t seen yet.

Beautiful to see all the children standing up to protect themselves and restoring hope in America.

This is a message from a concerned citizen.
This is a message from a concerned citizen.
This is a message from a concerned citizen.
