Okay, a show of hands for who was shocked that the latest school shooter was a middle to upper class white kid? If these were a bunch of black kids doing these shootings, people would be bravely initiating the conversation. They would be bravely transgressing political correctness. They would be doing the difficult work no one else is willing to do. Rich white kids on the other hand? They just seemed so normal. Quiet. But normal. Oh, and likely victimized. The last part is true only until years later when a journalist is brave enough to show the dearth of evidence of bullying.
Apologizes for the break from Monday posting.
