Yet another tragic massacre took place yesterday in the Robb Elementary school in south-west Texas, in the town of Uvalde. With the U.S. still reeling from the mass shooting at a Buffalo grocery store, not even two weeks ago, we are faced with yet another tragic event as an 18-year old opened fire and killing 19 children and two adults. This was the 27th school shooting this year in the USA. The children were all in 3rd, 4th and 5th Grade, aged anywhere between 7 and 11 years old. Obviously parents and Texas citizens are heart-broken by this tragic story, and yet an 18 year old was able to freely buys guns on his 18th birthday, as gun-control is often discussed and nothing is decided after one tragic massacre after another. Let us pray for the victims and their teachers, parents and the community of Uvalde, Texas, mostly of Latino descent.
