Some of the latest reporting is at least 22 dead and 50+ injured. Former firearms instructor targeted at least 3 public locations around the city - a bar, bowling alley, and a store. It's an evolving story so that info may change. It's horrible. I lived in that area years ago, but the locations are still familiar to me. 😣
Oh wow! I hadn’t seen the news because I was at a bowling alley with a group of teachers and students. The students had won an auction fundraiser to spend time with a teacher.
How am I going to convince myself much less my students, that I’m safe in this country?
Last week, we were given a kit and instructions on how to treat wounds. Teachers with more than twenty students in a room, one kit. It was suggested we’d probably be using the kit on ourselves or another teacher.
"A shocked Lewiston resident has told the BBC News Channel that the whole city was put in lockdown after mass shootings that reportedly left at least 16 people dead and dozens injured."
Thank you--I just found a more local story (I'm in MA) and it seems at least three towns are locked down. And the guy has a big automatic weapon. The fear people must be feeling in their non-maximum-security houses tonight is terrible to imagine.

Good lord, and we pretend to be civilized
Denise, I am so sorry that the chosen response to mass shootings is to teach combat trauma care. That is absolutely insane.
Denise, that is sickening.
Reality?
Kathy, unfortunately, it’s too real.
Mass shooter was driving around Maine of all places shooting people. No one is immune if it can happen in Maine. Shooter still on the run.
