My nephew was in the same class as the shooter in Georgia.

The shooter got up, left the classroom, my nephew heard multiple gun shots, and then shooter attempted to get back in the classroom.

Someone my nephew shared a school bus with is dead. Our society continues to fail our children, and too many of us appear unmotivated to solve these issues.

I'm sorry for the trauma experienced by your nephew and all of the other survivor students and faculty and for the unfathomable tragedy experienced by the families who lost loved ones.

The societal failure you speak of rests squarely with legislators who fail to act, lobbyists who sanction firearm deaths by fearmongering that "they're coming for your guns" — i.e., every gun, and a part — but not all — of the US voting public.

We can and must do better.
