Ive interacted with many people today who where shaken by this event which were new people to me. Im not saying it was this cell phone video that lead them to me, for some it was the news that this was the 18th shooting to take place in a school this year on the news this evening. I will say most of the reactions to this clip were more hopeful than Id expected.
I block RW trolls on my political social media, which Im open about. Not Republicans who are thoughtful, just troll like comment/accounts. Ive had this rule since 2013, so my followers expect a level of decency which I think leads to more open comments. I also only maintain 2Kish followers per account. I found out I cant manage more than that, which makes me a small fry. So, my experience will be limited to my small sample.
