I have become far too good at compartmentalizing the horrors of something like what happened in Florida yesterday, and just moving along with my day. It’s not a skill I ever thought I’d develop, nor is it one I ever wanted.
But here we are. Again. It has nearly reached the point where you feel like all you can do is hope and pray that the next time this happens, it won’t be in your hometown. How far gone are we?
Anthony Rizzo attended Marjory Stoneman Douglas High School in Parkland, Florida, where there has been a shooting today. In November of 2017, he donated $150,000 to the school to help lighting for the baseball field. @WGNNews pic.twitter.com/PnwgShGDvq

Parkland and Coral Springs please stay strong! This is out of control and and our country is in desperate need for change. I hope In this darkest of times back home this brings everyone together and we can find love. You’re all in my prayers 🙏🏻🙏🏻
