The GOP doesn’t care about you

We’ve all been there. Your principal comes over the loudspeaker and announces a code red lockdown. You and your classmates hustle to the designated corner of the room while your teacher frantically locks the door, turns off the lights, and shuts the blinds. You huddle together, never entirely sure if it’s just a drill. Maybe you texted your parents telling them you love them, just in case. Maybe you grabbed your backpack on the way to the corner to use as a shield, just in case. Maybe you bought a doorstop to keep in your backpack, just in case. This is the reality of being a student in America.
