Yeah, you better.

Yeah, you better.

All right, guys, we're not going to have our typical video today because we don't have our typical subject.

0:10.8

Unfortunately, we're going to be talking about the school shooting that took place in Minneapolis at Annunciation Catholic School.

0:16.5

And I'm going to get into the facts of this school shooting.

0:20.5

And I'll be referencing some notes here.

0:22.4

So apologies in advance, but I don't want to misspeak on anything that's taken place.

1:18.2

shooting. Okay, so it's always interesting. I never know what to say when things like this take

1:24.0

place. People give thoughts, they give prayers, whatever belief system you have,

1:32.4

you're sharing that, and then people debate back and forth and they scream at you over your beliefs or say your thoughts and prayers are not enough. There's, of course, the consistent
