I just saw on the news that a 46 year old white man shot an 8 year old black boy in the face. No reason. I guess the kids playing outside the apartment annoyed him. Happened in Dallas.
I really don't get this stuff. It's too crazy for words.
The little guy is in critical but stable condition. His mother said he ran back inside with a huge hole where his mouth used to be.
God. What is wrong with these guys? Why on earth would you think it was OK to shoot a child?

And children know this, sense this, about "adults"
So the War on Children is nothing new. It's what "grown ups" do.

That causes tension, and tension kills.
