Who Pulled the Trigger: An American Problem and A Mom’s prayer.

This must be one of the scariest things that has passed through my hands, but it can’t sit in my heart. I know I’m going to piss off just about everyone I know, and everyone can find something here to be offended about.  But we can’t play the “offended” card while children are dying.  So, …
