The 9 steps of grief in America after a school shooting
1. Hopes and prayers
2. Partisan attacks
3. Discussing the murder rate in Chicago, and black on black crime that "no one's talking about."
4. Attempts to pass some kind of gun reform.
5. Attack ads from the NRA
6. Loosening gun laws and restrictions.
7. Blissful forgetfulness as the media shifts elsewhere, distracting us from the issue.
8. Another mass shooting.
9. Repeat.

Stay strong Parkland.
