Four out of the five deadliest mass shooting in modern U.S. history have taken place since 2012 and all four of those shooters used AR-15 model rifles in their attacks. [Source: Wall Street Journal]

Normally I have a picture on my blog to illustrate the subject of my post. Today I only feature the raw facts. People are getting possession of assault style weapons and then they attack children and adults at public schools. The amount of sorrow from these attacks in the lives of the families of those who die and those who survive is impossible to measure. Even though we can’t measure it, compassion tells us it must be more than we can imagine.

• Some of the common solutions suggested including:
  
• Enacting Gun Control Legislation
  
• Providing Better Security in the Schools
  
• Increasing Availability of Mental Health Treatment
  

I believe some combination of these three actions will need to take place to stop these tragic events from happening.
