I was in the first grade when I heard about Columbine high school where 13 people were killed. The school made us practice getting into the corner of the room, pulling the shades down and staying real quiet. I was in high school when I heard about Virginia Tech where 32 people were killed. We practiced the “Code Blue” again where we move away from the doors, get down low away from the windows and I listened to hushed whispers about what we’d do if a shooter really did come after us. I was just exiting a midnight showing of The Dark Knight Rises when I heard about a showing in Aurora, Colorado where 12 people were killed. That was when I realized that there were more than school shootings, they can happen anywhere. I was in college during an art class when I heard about the Sandy Hook elementary shooting where 20 small children and 28 people total were killed. As people read the story aloud from their phones our teacher tested to windows to see if there was an easy way for us to escape if it happened to us right then.
Yesterday I attended gay pride in Boston and kept looking over my shoulder at the homophobic people blasting hate through their mega-phones and this idea in my head went off that we were all a perfect target. One of them could take us all out right there. I shook the idea from my head as just being one of my anxieties. Not ten hours later in Orlando, Florida a shooter went into a gay night club during a pride event and 50 people were killed.
I realize now that I wasn’t paranoid. I’ve grown to expect this kind of thing. I’ve been conditioned. Because I grew up with this.

y'all need to hear about gerb.
gerb was my high school physics teacher. (gerb is short for mr. gerber.) when we were learning about radiation and whatnot, and we touched on radiation poisoning, gerb decided to tell us a story.
when gerb was in high school, he worked in a supermarket. a cashier. there was this one little old lady, mrs. cassopolis, who was a regular. mrs. cassopolis firmly believed that the lasers used to scan her food items would give her radiation poisoning. they tried to explain that’s not a thing. but old cass wouldn’t hear a word of it.
the employees had to punch in every. last. grocery. item. MANUALLY.
and this woman would buy cartfulls of food every week, like any good grandma trying to feed her five children and eighteen grandchildren every time they come for a Sunday visit. so pretty soon, the employees figured out a strategy to get her on her way and get on with their lives.
one or more employees would distract old cass while the cashier would scan all the items he could as fast as humanly possible while she wasn’t paying attention.
now this supermarket had a rewards program for its most efficient workers. the computer would track how quickly the cashiers scanned items, and how many total they scanned in one day, that kind of thing. so one day, gerb’s boss came to him and said “uh,”
“you scanned three hundred items in six minutes last Tuesday during your shift”
and gerb says “i recall”
“that’s about four times faster than anything i’ve ever seen”
and gerb says “yea ok”
“jeremy what happened?”
and gerb says
“i had to save a little old woman from placebo radiation”
I hate it when people try to scare high school students by saying the words “the real world” like shut the fuck up there is no fake world there is only one world and we are all living in it right now whether you have a fucking high school diploma or not
