A year after she was shot by her 6-year-old student in a Virginia classroom, former teacher Abby Zwerner said she still worries about the other children who saw it happen, and wonders how they’re faring.
Wounded by a bullet that struck her hand and chest and punctured a lung, Zwerner rushed the other first-graders into the hallway before she collapsed in the elementary school’s office.
“I hope that they are enjoying school, enjoying their second-grade year,” Zwerner, 26, told The Virginian-Pilot newspaper. “I hope that they’re still kind to their classmates, kind to teachers. I hope that they still have happiness, and that their happiness wasn’t completely stripped away.”
The only thing that prevents shootings are good guys with guns.
The teacher should’ve had one so she could’ve defended herself
The person that coined this phrase is stepping down from the NRA. I think it’s time we retired this garbage, just like the person that created it.
My sarcasm wasn’t clear enough I guess.
Is that why elementary school shootings are incredibly rare outside the US where random people don’t run around with guns all the time?
You might have even less shootings if 100% of people on earth had guns. Even babies
