Thoughts on the Texas Tragedy

from Speaking Freely Hosted by Annette Newell

Unspeakable. Tragic. Horrifying. Words can barely scratch the emotions of what this week brought. Another school shooting… this one, taking the lives of 19 children, and two adults in Texas. So much has been said. So much more will be said. Will anything be done though? Will anything change? Anything that could prevent… yet another one? So in this episode, here are some of the notable speeches, and thoughts. Texas Governor Greg Abbott. Steve Kerr, the Golden State Warriors basketball coach, who lost his own dad, to gun violence. Connecticut U.S. Senator Christopher Murphy, who's been trying to get something changed, something done, since his own state suffered through Sandy Hook. President Joe Biden. Oregon U.S. Senator Ron Wyden. Shaq, and other members of the NBA on TNT team. Portland Public Schools Superintendent Guadalupe Guerrero. And O.S.U. History Professor Dr. Chris Nichols.
