In Australia, we have seen in the media the terrible news that sadly there has been another mass shooting in the US. Reports indicate 7 people were killed (including the gunman) and 7 injured. The video confession of the gunman was equally disturbing and makes me wonder why kids like this are slipping through the cracks. Are we doing enough...in families...in schools...and as a society to identify those around us who might be suffering loneliness or depression and simply ask "are you ok?". And surely it is time to ask if deadly guns such as assault rifles and handguns really make the US a safer place?
In any case, I can't imagine how the family and friends of those killed and injured must be feeling. It is a great tragedy. Given many of the members here are from the US, I offer my thoughts at what must be a sombre time.
