Where We Go From Here

This weekend has been one of tremendous heartache, chaos, and anger. 

It’s not news that people have big feelings about Trump, and seeing footage of someone trying to kill him made people feel scared. 

Fear is the universal emotion I am hearing from everyone I interact with. It’s terrifying that we live in a place where the most heavily guarded man in the world can still come within a literal inch of his life. It’s horrific that someone can just climb onto a rooftop and squeeze the trigger before anyone can intervene.

It’s scary to think about what comes next. 

I am not going to speculate about the shooter’s motive or how he could have gotten past security. I don’t know, and frankly, it’s not my job to find out. 

But what I do want to talk about is where we go from here. 

And in my mind, there is only one answer.
