situation for him, as my colleague told me. 0bviously, colleague told me. obviously, the community is absolutely devastated. lines of teachers and parents and community members and everyone just really feeling the impact is from what i ve been told, uvalde is just grim. from what i ve been told, uvalde isjust grim. it sjust in an incredibly sad, sad sight to see right now. unimaginably so. just to see right now. unimaginably so- just to to see right now. unimaginably so- just to say to see right now. unimaginably so. just to say that to see right now. unimaginably so. just to say that we - to see right now. unimaginably so. just to say that we are - so. just to say that we are seeing statements coming in across these statement of the political divide in the united states where we seen a tree two tweet now from hillary clinton former presidential candidate say we are becoming a nation of angriest screens. she s call for gun control saying we need to call for to stop the scourge of
