Looks like arrests have been made. Still don't know much about them, Ty Reik McCullough, 17, and Travis McCullough, 16.

Some people are blaming parents. I would blame many other things before automatically blaming the parents. However, I do think this quote from Ben Hayes, a senior pastor of First Baptist Church in Dadeville, is profound - "Nothing is going to change until we see hearts changed".

This is where change is probably most needed -

It takes the US to a grim milestone of more than 140 mass shootings in the country so far this year.

The Republican governor of Alabama, Kay Ivey, also released a statement, saying violence had no place in the state. She is a strong supporter of second amendment rights and last year signed a law which ended the requirement to obtain a permit to carry a concealed handgun in public.

To relax the existing laws regarding firearms to make it easier for people with murder on their mind to obtain lethal weapons without even minimal oversight is to move entirely in the wrong direction.

More than 140 mass shootings so far this year is more than one per day. That is an appalling tally. Is there some hope? Is that number actually falling?

CNN —
[Breaking news update, published at 12:58 p.m. ET]
A white man in his 80s is the individual who apparently shot and seriously wounded Ralph Yarl, a Black teen, on April 13 in Kansas City, Missouri, according to a CNN review of property records, police statements and detention records.
CNN is not naming the man at this time, given he has not been charged.
Two representatives at the Kansas City Police Department detention unit read the man’s booking information to CNN over the phone. They confirmed the man who was booked on an investigation hold was a White man in his 80s and his home address matches the address where the shooting took place.
The representatives also noted he was taken into custody on April 13 just before midnight and was released less than two hours later at 1:24 a.m. on April 14.

"Nothing is going to change until we see hearts changed."

This is an advanced way of saying "it's beyond our control."

If someone were to say that about our previous president, they'd be banned.

Say it and see what happens!!
