School Shootings Hit Home

4 Comments

I was shocked to go into work and watch CNN Headline News and find out that Orange High School, the school I attended before transferring to NC School of Science and Math, had a school shooting today.

This is the article from CNN.com.

I can’t even express the thoughts that went through my head as I heard about this. I have friends who teach there, and the siblings of some of my friends are still in school there. Wow…this REALLY hits home for me.

God-chaser. NC native, now planted in Jacksonville, FL. Happily married to a handsome church-planting pastor. I am easily excited by Jesus, education, cupcakes, Moleskine notebooks, and Pepsi. Overwhelmed by God's amazing grace, undeserving of His love and mercy.

  1. I hope all is well with you and yours.

  2. yep, dude looked crazy in that cnn picture — lucky he didn’t do more damage.

  3. that was insane…

  4. I’m glad no one was seriously hurt. On the news, he was yelling, “Remember Columbine!!,” as he was being put into the police car.

    And Erin, I actually responded to Rell’s blog on this same issue. East Chapel Hill had a student who fired shots in the school and held a teacher and student hostage. I don’t think that it got as much attention though.
