Tam is right. It really starts with kindness. Alot of people in our world feel alone. They feel unappreciated. They feel left out. Words are truly powerful and you don't know how significant it is to simply approach someone and give them a compliment like "I like your sweater" or even "Have a nice day". Those simple words can make a huge difference in someone's day. Be kind people, look to your left and right at someone with a smile and that same love will return ❤️
I agree with not showing their face or say their name. No one needs to know about them. I always refuse to see anything about them. They did something horrible and they WANT us to know who they are. It’s sickening
I agree wholeheartedly. Let's not give these terrible sick people the time day they so badly want. When we dont give the issue attention perhaps 1 day the issue will disappear.
But... Shouldn't we know who they are so we can be cautious of them?..I mean.., the murderer might be arrested but if the community knows them, they can even be aware not to get close to their associates
Tamera, thank you for being so strong and yet so graceful with spreading the word despite this terrible tragedy. All of us truly appreciate you coming back to the show to use your platform for a good cause. Sending many thoughts and prayers your way. We need to make a CHANGE NOW together.
I truly am proud to see how strong she is and being able to get through this ! I’m telling you it’s tough to get back up and move forward when someone you’re extremely close to passes on especially in a tragic way... it’s almost as if you feel numb and can’t move ! I lost my aunt a few months ago to cardiovascular disease and i moved forward not in because I know that’s what she’d want me to do and make her proud ! She lives within me and always will ! Hopefully whoever is watching this who has lost anyone whether it was to gun violence or any other tragic death can stand up and start to do research and figure out things and ways to advocate and try to walk towards change that we need in this country !
Trying to hold yourself together while advocating the change you want to see and remembering your loved one can be extremely tough, but Tamera did it so gracefully. Her eyes spoke all her sadness but she spoke a lot of truth. My deepest condolences. 🌹
Trayvon Martin and all our children deserve to be safe from gun-violence. Well spoken. Sad that we only advocate once something affects us, but God has his reasons - as Tam said, she has a new purpose now : to advocate for change. Lets hope everyone can accept that message into their hearts now.
I love the determination in her eyes and hopefully the real can make people think on how we treat each other and do better. It starts with kids in school to stop them from bullying others
we shouldnt have to wait until someone dies to be kind and love someone always aprreciate your love ones before they die so sorry for your loss tamera keep strong
It’s so sad that this should happen and then people start doing this type of volunteering and helping others. Why we not start helping each other to PREVENT this things happening ????
Sorry for your loss. I hope you find strength in God and His promise to bring back our loved ones from the dead on a paradise earth Acts 24:15. There will be a time when things like this won't ever happen again Rev 21:3,4. I normally don't post scriptures online but I really felt like sharing this with you. Hope you don't take it the wrong way
I'm 17 and this breaks my heart because she was only a year older than me. And I don't even want to imagine the heart ache that my mother would be feeling if it was me that this happened to. She seemed like a truly lovely person who didn't deserve this and I wish she was still with us but may God bless her soul resting in paradise.
Watching this really tore me up. I just don’t like to see sweet people like Tam hurting like that. My condolences and prayers go to the family and friends of that young lady
Hosea 4: 6 " my people are destroyed from lack of knowledge. "Because you have rejected knowledge, I also reject you as my priests; because you have ignored the law of your God, I also will ignore your children."
I feel Tamera 100% .... I feel the pain and I can relate to her situation so much .... My boyfriend died due to gun violence back in 2017 and he was only 19 at the time. He didn’t deserve it and nobody deserves to die like that regardless of who you are. I really hope we as a country can work for gun violence... We need Justice for all the families that have gone through gun violence and you know help each other out to avoid this situation. Don’t be afraid to confront someone if you see them hurting ... you can change someone’s mindset ...
@@allysonmessina1785 Twenty 6&7 year old children lost their lives in Sandy Hook. If that didn't move them to make a change, why do people think this will?
She looks even stronger than before. We all should listen and understand what she wants to say, and see the people in one another, not the race, nationality, gender or political party.... in the end we're all people and we all want to just live in peace. Maybe we just happen to have different thoughts on how to achieve it. See the similarities, not the differences. Much love Tam!
Not to take away from the loss of her niece but whenever a Muslim,Black, Latina, Asian or Arab etc shoots someone they’re automatically named and shamed, like they should be but when the the person is white yall don’t wanna do no naming and shaming anymore 👀
Lowkey Fye I was thinking the same thing. How come I did not hear about this in the news? Just finding about this now. The shooter was a white man and former Marine. He should have been publicly shamed like how the media does to people of color all the time.
I think that the scholarships are amazing great tamera! And I am glad that you are being strong and speaking about this. We support you tamera. And I agree the mental health is very important, peolpe need to be less judge mental as well.
It will only stop once the public is educated on who funds their government representatives campaigns. If you vote for someone who takes money from the National Rifle Association, YOU contribute to nothing being done, to countless more lives being destroyed. Be Woke and Vote Woke!
Susalka Luczek Guns are inanimate objects, they do not get up and fire themselves... it’s a person pulling the trigger, we have a people problem not a gun problem
We shouldn’t have to fight at all. And this is why war needs to end. Wars need to stop being funded. We need to fund towards world peace. It shouldn’t be a crazy concept while battles & war isn’t.
I agree. On my 21st Birthday, I went out with my parents and they told me that I was changing the words "Rachel's Challenge" out the uber window on the way home.
America is a Blood country. I’ve had the opportunity to live there briefly and it's Sodom and Gomorrah. I met some very kind hearted people whilst living there, and my assumption is that God is spearing the country on that basis only. God have mercy even celebrities children are not safe. Their money can't protect them from any disaster- natural or manmade. RIPAlaina 🙏🏽
Some of y’all are gonna be mad that she didn’t say gun control/reform However, this is the Housley family member, and it’s their choice and their way to honor Alaina and how they want to make this country better. We all need to work together. Hopefully the Housley will partner with other gun reform organizations to bring about change
"We shouldn't have to fight for the safety of our children!" is a very profound, true but privileged thing to say, so I think its important to follow the logical procession of the absolute statement we make. Poverty is a violence against children that parents fight against everyday and I not sure how it can be justified to exist in a country as rich as the US. But if you're conservative you don't want that so... Idk it's interesting to see the stances people have when it's a life and death situation, not realizing that a lot of people are living that life or death situation on a daily basis.
Okay I’m seeing a lot of metal health advocacies, which I don’t have a problem with. BUT in this case I think it’s important that we know who this maniac was. HE POSTED ON SOCIAL MEDIA saying something like “They’re all gonna try to blame this on mental health, but I’m perfectly sound I’m just doing it because I FELT like it” he knew what he was doing, doesn’t sound like a suffering PTSD veteran to me. Sounds like meant to do evil. Things like THIS is important because it shows that mental healthcare reforms aren’t the ONLY thing that’s needed. You CLEARLY need GUN reform. Jesus. I don’t understand this clinging to your guns, honestly it’s so disgusting.
Yes but it was well known he had severe PTSD before this. I don't think he's a reliable supplier of information given his posts that he was making while he was in the middle of the act. I think the thing is people who don't want guns to be talked about bring up mental health but they never actually do anything to help people with mental health issues. They just scapegoat people with mental issues and then move on once the issue of guns dies down. She's actually doing something to help those with mental health issues. Is mental health the only issue? No. It's more but the fact is despite all the talk about mental health being the issue (by all sides in the political world) nothing was actually being done to help those with mental health. So she isn't talking about helping them she's actually gone out and working on actually helping them which is better than virtually anything anyone has done.
I agree about not saying the shooter’s name and showing their face. A youtuber, Philip Defranco, has a news show and he makes a point of not showing those pieces of information so they don’t get their fame. I think more mainstream news stations need to make that common practice.
And a lot of the time people remember the shooters name and not the victim's. So sad
Yeah the victims are more important than the shooter
Yeah...bc of social apps, everyone is now part of the media...we all need to do a better job of not getting much attention to the shooter
Judith Majoro right that’s so sad
Sarah Laurie yeah like Jack the Ripper
Rest in Peace to all the victims involved, we must remember their families at this time also.
LOVE Y'ALL SISTER'S!
I'm happy tamera is using her platform to speak up.

musicgal421 yeah but for accuracy and so that someone is not falsely accused, I think they should show their face
In my country if someone does a terrible crime we don’t care who they are. I feel the US media glorifies them
I agree wholeheartedly. Let's not give these terrible sick people the time day they so badly want. When we dont give the issue attention perhaps 1 day the issue will disappear.
