can we please all just agree that the plan to put more firearms in school by arming teachers or other staff members as a way to increase school safety/decrease school shootings is asinine?

This chart shows 2019; things have gotten worse during the pandemic. Also, it doesn’t include accidents and suicide.

You will find that there are many common varieties of flowers (or any plant for that matter,) that are poisonous, toxic, or venomous. There are a few relatively safe ways to still use them (without touch or consumption) in your craft if you so wish.
There are plants that can cause organs to stop functioning, including your lungs, kidneys, and heart. This is why it is so important to research properly, and understand how to safely handle it if desired. Do not leave these within the reach of pets or children.
Do NOT ingest these flowers or consume them in any way. This includes burning them for smoke cleansing. In fact, please don’t put anything on or in your body without research, identification, and consulting a medical professional about it first.
Consumption Alternatives:
Contained Vessels:
After properly drying these plants, you can use these plants in sealed sachets and bottle spells, or leave them hanging in a safe place to have a consistent and fluid stream of their energies. Please handle with gloves.
Growing:
If you possess a pet or small child, this is probably not the suggestion for you. Many practitioners use dried foliage because it preserves better and is flammable if desired. However, having a growing and alive plant around also can attract the intentions you desire if done strategically with intent. Please handle with gloves.
Baneful Magic:
Applying the aforementioned methods I’ve laid out, you can sometimes use toxic plants in these forms to do Baneful Magic. Any positive attribute a flower can bring can also be used to revoke or withdraw it, alongside the already toxic energy. Please handle with gloves.

Jesus, people, Google: Columbine.
At least one person OFFICIALLY died because of police cowardice there. A teacher bled to death, his time of death placed about an hour AFTER the shooters had committed suicide and the cops coward outside, treating the fleeing students like Jews for the cattle cars.
Google it. Look for videos. The only thing more disgusting is the fact that nobody cared. No laws were changed. Mandates were never placed on the police, and the cowards never faced consequences.
COLUMBINE WAS 23 YEARS AGO!
When did you speak out? When did you get angry and make demands?
All roads lead back to ourselves. We are the problem and the agent of change. When we change OURSELVES then the world changes.

I am not a mother myself and I don’t wish to become one, but I am a daughter and a sister, a child of a broken home, as many others, I’m someone who witnessed and endured several common mistakes our parents made with my younger sister and I, but also, someone who knows with complete certainty those mistakes weren’t conscious.
So, once again I’m trying to convey what I’ve learned through what this brave woman shared with the world, with the main goal to help others and prevent them from going through what she and some other mothers, fathers, siblings and families have suffered unnecessarily.
I firmly believe Sue isn’t guilty or responsible for the crime her younger son perpetrated 20 years ago, tho, I know she committed some serious mistakes, out of ignorance, about the struggles that young man was enduring right before his suicide.
That’s why I pictured here what she tried to be for him as for his older brother: just the best mom she could, maybe not a perfect one and not even the one her son needed at that time, but the absolute best she could and that’s something no one, not even him and what he did, can take away from her.
