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.”
There’ve been a bunch of initiatives the past couple years (since Biden took office) to provide free gun locks and lock boxes. There’s really no excuse not to have one.
Yep. A bunch of police departments give out cable locks if you just ask. I bought one for $4 because I don’t want to go to the police department for any reason and I use it to lock my helmet to my motorcycle.
It’s not a perfect solution but it’s cheap and helpful.
I’d like to know more!
