I am at a loss of words. I didn’t want to see this video but I ended up doing it. I needed to feel the pain of Kimberly & Felix. I’m a father to a 10 year old and there has not been a night since Uvalde that I hug him so tight. I cry with him silently and can’t even imagine what all the families are going thru. My prayers are to all those affected. Thank you for your strength Kimberly. We are with you in this journey of healing.
Her saying, "I left my daughter at that school, and that decision will haunt me for the rest of my life" absolutely broke me. That sentence keeps replaying in my head all the time no matter what I'm doing and it breaks my heart every time. No parent should ever have to feel that way. They don't deserve this pain 💔
This is gut wrenching. I feel so sorry for these parents
God bless you. We will fight to honor your daughter with action.
I am so sorry for your loss and your sorrow. Only peace-loving people want the proliferation of guns to cease. The wicked love violence. They fail to understand that life is sacred. Without life, there is no liberty, no pursuit of happiness. May your memories of her from her birth to her receiving her awards be a blessing until your family is united with your lovely daughter ❤️.
God Bless you ❤️
I am a resident of the hero city of Donetsk of the Donetsk People's Republic and I can say with full confidence, as an eyewitness of the ongoing aggression by the Armed Forces of Ukraine and other Nazi battalions for 8 years, against the inhabitants of Donbass, that Ukraine is carrying out GENOCIDE of the inhabitants of Donbass and destroying the population of the DPR and LPR in including from weapons produced by Western countries, namely the USA, France, Britain and Germany. The Armed Forces of Ukraine are shelling places where civilians gather, there are no military and military equipment in these places, they brazenly destroy the civilian population: children, women, the elderly. Russia is conducting a forced special operation to protect the inhabitants of the republics of Donbass from the Nazi regime that came to power in Ukraine as a result of a coup in Kyiv in 2014. Read the history of citizens and always remember what preceded this or that action, and in this situation, aggression from Ukraine against the DPR and LPR and all Russian. We are on our own land and we will defend it from injustice and from the genocide of the West and its vassal Ukraine against the Independent Republics of Donbass! US and EU start wars around the world
We need better gun control laws in US. Increase age of gun buyer, anythinhg, I'll take anything at this point!
When does the law enforcement husband speak to tell us he wants his community to be disarmed? Pretty rich for the wife to want everyone else to be disarmed - knowing her husband will always have his forearms at home every night. What about the people who need a SEMI-automatic rifle to defend their family and home? Wouldn't you have preferred the teacher had a firearm to protect her students? This emotional video generates more questions than it offers in solutions. Next time the teachers should be trained to NEVER unlock security doors.
Its obvious this event was another staged event to disarm civilians.
TAKE AWAY THE GUNS
🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤠
If they keep us safe why
Aren’t they FREE? 😱
Don't take them away, restrict them and stop handing them out like candy.
I'm so sorry for your loss but your never going to under mind the 2nd Amendment. You should evaluate what your saying and put the blame on VPD the ones with the guns who were supposed to protect your Child and did nothing .
There is plenty of blame to go around, but fundamentally such damage could not be done with anything other than and assault weapon. These weapons of war have no place on our streets.
@@karlynward2025 Then move to Canada
Americans should have access to the right tool for the job at hand and just because a gun looks similar to what is used on the battlefield done mean it is .Post on FB I shot my Grandmother and the Grandmother call police . Swipes a truck then totals truck proceeds to stand on side of school shooting in windows before going into school . Your wrong It's all on Chief tight lip and his programmed pants wetter"s.
Please recite the second amendment for me? In full please
She's not going against the 2nd amendment. Kimberly does not want to ban guns completely and neither do the rest of the parents, they just want to raise the age to purchase one and do stricter background checks. People are using guns in the wrong way, so there should be a change.
Sorry for your loss,
But I don’t want gun bans like they have in Méjico!
