Bullet Proof Dress For Kids? | Gun Control Texas

07 Sep 2022

Description

Hey Identifier,  #bulletproof  #guncontrol #texas  “I was pregnant with my oldest when Sandy Hook happened,” Arnold, who tends to find inspiration for her work from a deeply personal place, explains of the 2012 Elementary school shooting that killed 27 people, including 20 children. “I remember having a total emotional breakdown while in the middle of teaching. I called my partner and was like, ‘We can't have this baby.’ He was like, ‘Well, it's gonna happen.’ I was like, ‘We can't bring a baby into this world where people are shooting up elementary schools.’” Arnold is far from alone with such fears. Recent studies have shown a rise in anxiety among teens and adults over safety concerns at school, following an uptick of shootings. The tragedy in Uvalde, Texas, in May, which left 19 children and two teachers dead, was the final straw for Arnold. “When it happened, I was so fired up,” she says. “It was the last week of school for my kids and I was in that crossfire — 'I don't want to send my kids to school, but we can't live in fear. So you have to go to school.'” Leave us a Voice Mail or Support  https://anchor.fm/the-identity-booth/message https://anchor.fm/the-identity-booth/support Sub to the channel here https://www.twitch.tv/theidentitybooth Donate https://streamlabs.com/projecteto/tip The Goal: Try to Identify with you as you try to Identify with me.  Find Heero   here: https://linktr.ee/the_identity_Booth outro Hey Baby (Produced By Melv) Take Care
