I don’t particularly love to read, but I am trying to change that.  I have started to read a new book called The Serpent’s Tooth.  So far, I am actually really enjoying the book.  The plot is about a shooting at a bar, and the detective who is investigating it.  I just finished the chapter in which the detectives are going through the crime scene after the shooting.  The whole thing is just truly disgusting, but the whole thing interests me. I think part of all of us is curious about the things that scare us.  I am horrified by shootings of any kind. The fact that someone would do that, and that our world pushes people to that point, is truly appalling. I recently read an article on the Washington post about the brother of the Parkland school shooter.  The whole article gave me chills. If you would like to read it, click here.  Something needs to be done about gun violence in America.  I believe in the second amendment, but I do not believe in helpless innocent people dying at the hands of helpless mentally ill people.
