She had also won an honor-roll award earlier in the day, and her father reportedly spent hours waiting for information before confirming her death on Facebook.   Xavier Javier Lopez, 10, “was so full of life,” his mother, Felicha Martinez, told the Post. He liked sports, art class, and hamming it up for the camera. “He was funny, never serious and his smile,” Martinez said of her fourth-grade son. “That smile I will never forget. It would always cheer anyone up.”   Nevaeh Bravo, 10, was a fourth-grader. Per BuzzFeed, her cousin confirmed her death in a Facebook post, sharing a photo of Bravo smiling in a blue dress. “Our Nevaeh has been found,” her cousin wrote. “She is flying with the angels above.”   Alithia Ramirez, 10, loved to draw and wanted to be an artist, her father told KSAT 12 News.   Tess Marie Mata, 10, was confirmed dead by her sister, who posted on Facebook recalling Mata's “contagious laugh,” adding that the two played softball together. “I'm confused because how can something like this happen to my sweet, caring, and beautiful sister, and I'm angry because a coward took you from us,” Mata's sister wrote.   Alexandria Aniya Rubio, 10, was “beautiful and smart,” her mother, Kimberly Mata-Rubio, wrote in a Facebook tribute. Hours before the shooting, Mata-Rubio said she went to her daughter's honor-roll ceremony and watched her receive a good citizen award. “We told her we loved her and would pick her up after school,” Mata-Rubio wrote. “We had no idea this was goodbye.”   Layla Salazar, 10, used to sing along to “Sweet Child O' Mine” by Guns N' Roses on the way to school, her father told the Associated Press.   Makenna Lee Elrod, 10, was found dead in a classroom, her older sister confirmed on Twitter: “My sweet innocent baby sister…my heart will forever break for you my love.”   Jayce Luevanos, 10, was killed along with his cousin and classmate, Jailah Silguero. A cousin of theirs told ABC7 that “they always had a smile” on their faces.   Jailah Nicole Silguero, 11, was a “delighted, energetic, lovely little girl” who enjoyed making TikToks, according to a GoFundMe page her family friend made to cover her funeral expenses. The morning of the shooting, she reportedly asked her mother if she could stay home.   Eliana “Ellie” Garcia, 9, was the second eldest of five girls. She wanted to be a teacher, loved the film Encanto, and dreamed of wearing a purple dress to her quinceañera, her grandparents told the L.A. Times.    Eliahana Cruz Torres was also killed in the massacre, her family confirmed to KSAT.   Annabell Guadalupe Rodriguez, 10, was a third-grader, her family told KHOU-11. She was in the same classroom as her cousin, Jacklyn Cazares, when the shooter came in.   Jacklyn “Jackie” Cazares, 10, was in fourth grade. She was killed along with her cousin and classmate, Annabell Guadalupe Rodriguez, according to KSAT.   Maite Yuleana Rodriguez, 10, was a “sweet, smart little girl,” her family member wrote in a GoFundMe for her funeral expenses.   Rogelio Torres, 10, was among Tuesday's victims, his relatives told a Univision 14 KDTV reporter.   Miranda Matthis, 11, attended Robb Elementary with her brother, who survived the shooting. She was killed in her classroom, her parents told the Fort-Worth Star Telegram.   Eva Mireles, 44, was a fourth-grade teacher at Robb. Her aunt, Lydia Martinez Delgado, told the Post that Mireles was married to a police officer; their daughter just graduated from college. “She did all she could to live a long life,” Delgado said, “and here it was cut short.” She reportedly helped her students climb out the window before Ramos shot her. Irma Garcia, Mireles's co-teacher, was also killed in Tuesday's attack, her son, Christian Garcia, told NBC. She'd taught at Robb Elementary for 23 years and had four kids. “She sacrificed herself protecting the kids in her classroom,” said a Twitter user identifying himself as Garcia's nephew. “She died a HERO. She was loved by many and will truly be missed.”

I had to talk about it.  I share a couple of my "why's behind school shootins..how we (law enforcement) should respond based on what we've learned..the very least we can do to minimize the casualties and...what we can do to help prevent these mass casualty events.  I hope this is helpful to someone, I know I've come away with some things I can hopefully implement at my school.

Uvalde, the SBC & Prayers of the People. Mike and Tim are joined by Executive Pastor and Elder of Journey Church Suzie Lind to discuss the events of the past week, including the sexual abuse report from the Southern Baptist Convention and the mass shooting in Uvalde Texas. It is a very raw conversation as everyone tries to sort out postures and directions forward. At the end of the conversation, Suzie, Mike and Tim engage in another 'Prayers of the People.' Lord, we pray for the people and children who have been subjugated and abused by institutions or those in power, but specifically within your church. Lord that you would bring healing and peace and freedom to those who have been hurt and who have been hiding or have been made to feel shameful by their abusers. Father, we pray that there would be Justice and a complete dismantling of the church that hides and protects those that prey on others, that marginalizes and exerts power over. Lord have mercy. Father God, we pray for the families of Uziyah Garcia, Jose Flores, Amerie Jo Garza, Xavier Javier Lopez, Nevaeh Bravo, Alithia Ramirez, Tess Marie Mata, Alexandria Aniya Rubio, Layla Salazar, Makenna Lee Elrod, Jayce Luevanos, Jailah Nicole Silguero, Eliana “Ellie” Garcia, Eliahana Cruz Torres, Annabell Guadalupe Rodriguez, Jacklyn “Jackie” Cazares, Maite Yuleana Rodriguez, Rogelio Torres, Miranda Matthis, Eva Mireles and Irma Garcia. Lord, that you would hear their cries; That you would bring mercy; That you would sit with them; That others would walk in grief with them. Lord we pray that American hearts would be empathetic and would bring about the change necessary to keep our babies safe, to keep our neighbors safe, to keep our elderly safe. God, show us how to be peacemakers and not just peace keepers. As always, we encourage and would love discussion as we pursue.

Today we offer a meditation on Grieving a Tragedy. Here in the United States, we have recently experienced the pain and trauma of gun violence in an elementary school in Texas, a grocery store in New York, and a church in California.   We can become desensitized and unable to process so much tragic news. Often words alone seem inadequate. We need silence in the presence of a Holy God.   So today we make space to grieve and mourn for those who are mourning. We make space to get in touch with our own feelings and emotions. And we make space to consider how God is calling us to action and to show compassion to those hurting.   We'll be meditating on a prayer from Psalm 57, TPT. We invite you to prepare a quiet place for this time of meditation. Perhaps light a candle. Don't rush or hurry this time. Linger as long as you need to process your feelings.    Have mercy on me, O God…for in you my soul takes refuge. I will take refuge in the shadow of your wings. Psalm 57:1 NLT   These are the 19 children and 2 teachers whose lives were taken at Robb Elementary School mass shooting in Uvalde, Texas: Alexandria Aniyah Rubio, 10 Amerie Jo Garza, 10 Tess Marie Mata, 10 Jose Flores, 10 Miranda Mathis, 11 Maite Rodriguez, 10 Makenna Lee Elrod, 10 Xavier Lopez, 10 Eliana Garcia, 9 Layla Salazar, 10 Eliahana Cruz Torres, 10 Alithia Ramierz, 10 Jackie Cazares, 10 Annabelle Rodriguez, 10 Jailah Silguero, 10 Jayce Luevanos, 10 Uziyah Garcia, 9 Nevaeh Bravo, 10 Rojelio Torres, 10 Eva Mireles, 44 Irma Garcia, 46   California Church  Dr. John Cheng, 52   These are the names of the lives taken in the Buffalo, New York Grocery Store mass shooting: Roberta A, Drury, 32 Margus D. Morrison, 52 Andre Mackneil, 53 Aaron Salter, 55 Geraldine Talley, 62 Celestine Chaney, 65 Heyward Patterson, 67 Katherine Massey, 72 Pearl Young, 77 Ruth Whitfield, 86

The first half of this episode includes a weekly catch up session, new food recommendations, a possible visitation from someone who passed on, and Jamie mentions two podcast listeners, who turned friends, who turned business partners. The latter part of the episode involves Jamie's thoughts on gun control and the recent Ulvade, TX shooting. A trigger warning is given prior to this discussion. A personal message from Jamie: The outro song is "Hole in the World" by the Eagles. I chose this song for the back of my dad's prayer card. Not only did he love the band, but the lyrics described exactly how my family and I felt when we lost him. Given that I spoke about him in this episode and the Ulvade, TX tragedy, the song and sentiment also go out to the victims: Makenna Lee Elrod, 10, Layla Salazar, 10, Miranda Mathis, 11, Nevaeh Bravo, 10, Jose Manuel Flores Jr., 10, Xavier Lopez, 10, Tess Marie Mata, 10, Rojelio Torres, 10, Eliana "Ellie" Garcia, 9, Eiliahna Cruz Torres, 10, Annabell Guadalupe Rodriquez, 10, Jackie Cazares, 10, Uziyah Garcia, 10, Jayce Carmelo Luevanos, 10, Maite Yuleana Rodriguez, 10, Jailah Nicole Silguero, 10, Irma Garcia, 48, Eva Mireles, 44, Amerie Jo Garza, 10, Alexandria "Lexi' Aniyah Rubio, 10, and Alithia Ramirez, 10.

Instead, in a perverse inversion of this day, we remember little children whose lives were cut down by weapons of war, not used to defend this country from foreign aggressors, but turned on its own citizens in a callous act of unforgivable aggression. To be honest, I wasn't sure if I should preach on this today. These shootings have become so frequent that if we clergy addressed them each time a new one occurred, we wouldn't preach on much else. But as the predictable tweets of thoughts and prayers were fired off by the same lawmakers and pastors who consistently block not only legislation, but even conversation about legislation, to address these atrocities, I felt literally nauseous.  We do not need platitudes from the pulpit. On this eve of Memorial Day, let's not mince words: these children are dead because they are casualties in a Culture War not of their choosing. Involuntary conscripts into a war to determine the future not only of this nation, but of our faith. Thoughts and prayers aren't the solution; they are the problem. These mass shootings can only continue because the Church in this country refuses to behave like the Church. When I was a loyal Southern Baptist footsoldier on the other side of the Culture Wars, it was common to talk about the four “G's”: guns, gays, God and gynecology. We've seen this month that strategy hasn't changed in fifty years.    This morning on this Feast of Ascension, I am left with the difficult conclusion that these precious children and their teachers are dead because the mostly white Christian evangelical lobby does not believe that Christ is risen, ascended and reigning at God's right hand in glory. They do not believe in God, at least not any God I recognize from the Gospels. The same lot that sang “Some may trust in horses, some may trust in chariots / But we will trust in the name of our God” in the 1980s and 90s, have proven time and again since then that the only thing they really trust in is their assault rifles. Their faith is in the NRA.  If you think this is hyperbole, consider The Washington Post's disturbing report that two days before the massacre in Uvalde, the gunmaker who manufactured the weapon used by the killer posted a photo online advertising its AR-15-style rifles showing a young boy - a child - holding a semiautomatic on his lap with this caption from Proverbs 22:6: “Train up a child in the way he should go, and when he is old, he will not depart from it.” The sad part, of course, is that they're right.  The Church has a profound moral obligation to call out the NRA on this point. They justify their pistol-peddling politics with the circular logic that gun ownership should be easily accessible because we live in a dangerous world where an 18 year old might shoot up an elementary school. Carried to its logical conclusion, the NRA envisions a world where everyone is armed to the teeth; where parents, instead of reminding their children not to forget their lunch boxes, will remind them not to forget their guns. Please, someone explain to me what part of that vision conforms to anything we know about Jesus in the Gospels?  The Parkland Shooting survivors are right: some love their guns more than their children. In Christianity, we have a name for that: idolatry. How ironic that the most outspoken defender of the NRA in our lifetimes is also best known for his role as Moses in the 1956 epic The Ten Commandments. Would that he had understood those commandments better, perhaps he would have held a different view. Because, in fact, there was a very practical purpose for discouraging the worship of other gods in the first commandment of Exodus. We hear about it in the next book, Leviticus. As a gay man, I'm used to evangelicals breaking out Leviticus 18:22 against me. But if they backed up just one verse, they'd read in 18:21: “You shall not give any of your offspring to sacrifice them to Molech and so profane the name of your God: I am the Lord.” Chapter twenty gets even more pointed, claiming that to do so amounts to defiling the sanctuary of the Lord, and that God will destroy everyone who turns a blind eye to this abhorrent practice of child sacrifice.  Interestingly, Molech is only mentioned by name once in the New Testament - in the Book of Acts, nine chapters before the odd story we heard this morning. That's no accident. Acts of the Apostles is nearly obsessed with this question of idolatry. Acts 16 goes out of its way to tell us twice that the reason Paul and Silas are imprisoned is not because of some doctrinal dispute with the local authorities, but because they put an end to child exploitation. In doing so, they incurred a heavy financial loss for the men who were using the girl to turn a profit in exchange for her fortune telling powers. We need to return to this standard, when those who called themselves followers of Jesus put child-welfare above profits. The Church must demand that our governments and churches stop sacrificing our children to this Molech, this idol of easy gun ownership, even military-grade guns, turning a handsome profit for manufacturers every year, which in turn allows them to pour even more money in lobbies like the NRA.  One of the few children to survive the massacre did so only because she dipped her hand in the blood of a friend next to her, smeared it all over her body and played dead, hoping the teen-turned-angel-of-death might pass over her. No child should ever have to become living lintels and doorposts. How odd that a branch of Christianity fixated on the blood of Jesus, blood that can supposedly protect against COVID can't protect children from their own designs, from having to play in some warped retelling of the Exodus story. Jesus is called the Lamb of God by John's Gospel because of his sacrificial self-offering on a Cross. We've watched the memorial set up outside the school grow to include 19 small wooden crosses with hearts and Jesus fish at their center. When I saw that, it reminded me of a fact few Christians today realize. The cross did not become the official, or even a common symbol for Christianity until the late fifth or sixth centuries. Why?  As mothers plead for action, as they plead for the state not to forget their slaughtered babies, every Christian in this land should ask themselves how Mary would react if she walked into their sanctuaries. How would she react to the giant gilded cross suspended in our apse? It's easy for us to take the Cross for granted today as a decorative element in our piety, but for those who actually lived in its terrifying shadow, it was unthinkable to represent it visually. Instead, early Christians opted for images of Jesus as the Good Shepherd, or images of a fish because the Greek letters used to spell fish ICTHUS acted as a verbal gloss of “Jesus Christ Son of God, Savior.”  Our gospel accounts of the crucifixion are quite spare, but it was a gory affair. Suffocation over days as birds of prey slowly picked at victims flesh while they were still alive as people who probably knew them passed by. It was a vivid demonstration of Rome's power to utterly erase humanity and dignity. Because of this, it was one of Rome's most effective deterrents. It is sometimes assumed that when Constantine or Theodosius finally outlawed the practice, they did so for pious reasons: so that others could not die in the same manner as Christ. But, in fact, the earliest source tells us that it was more from a place of concern around humane treatment. Hanging replaced crucifixion because it was quick and far less painful. In other words, Christian rulers banned this weapon of terror because it was the right thing to do in light of their faith. Only when the actual thing disappeared did the symbol emerge.    We must pray for every parent of every child, and every family or friend of every victim of gun violence during this time when images of these weapons are circulating so widely in our media. But we must do more than lobby for better trigger warnings before movies and in social media feeds. We must demand that those who call themselves by Christ's name stand up against this insidious idol. Molech didn't attack and impose himself on the ancient Israelites, they adopted him as their false god by choice. There are glimmers of hope. Republican Representative Chris Jacobs came out in favor of stronger laws restricting the sale of semiautomatic weapons, limiting magazine capacity, and excluding the sale of body armor to the general public. Some conservative evangelical pastors are beginning to consider supporting similar measures.  The Church in this nation needs to wake up. There are many things that divide us, but this should not be one of them. The Mainline Church cannot be the only one mobilizing. Here at Grace, we have an altar to the victims of gun violence in the back of our sanctuary, and it has become one of the most visited sacred sites in this space. Everyone who calls themselves by Christ's name should be as united in our disgust of easy access to AR-15 style weapons as we are in our love for the victims, families and friends who have already suffered so much, too much. The Church must come together, laying down our arms in the Culture Wars, to advance this crucial conversation, and to effect real and lasting change. Thankfully, we have a great high priest, who, knowing our weakness, knowing that we are plagued by ego and division, knowing that it would take not a single lifetime, but a lifetime of lifetimes to join in a more perfect union, prayed that we all might be one.  Amen.

Officials say the 18-year-old gunman wasn't confronted by a school resource officer outside Robb Elementary School in Uvalde, Texas, contradicting earlier information. It's believed the shooter entered through an unlocked door, killing 19 children and two teachers. One of those teachers who died was Eva Mireles, who leaves behind a husband, daughter and an entire community who adored her. Juan Maldonado is a close family friend and considered Eva a sister. He tells Anderson Cooper how loved she was by her family, friends and students. Plus, Senate Minority Leader Mitch McConnell says he's directed Texas Sen. John Cornyn to engage with Democrats on a “bipartisan solution” on gun violence.

With the tragic massacre of children and teachers in Uvalde, Texas dominating the news, we talked to Igor Volsky of Guns Down America about what can be done, if anything, to combat gun violence and the politicians who support it. But our gun laws cannot change unless our politicians do, so Bill also talked to two sharp political reporters about the 2022 primaries: Niall Stanage, White House Columnist for The Hill and Political Analyst at News Nation AM and Maya King, Politics Reporter for the New York Times covering the South based in Georgia.Today's Bill Press Pod is supported by The American Federation of Teachers. It was two teachers, Eva Mireles and Irma Garcia, who lost their lives in Uvalde trying to protect their students.More information at AFT.org.See Privacy Policy at https://art19.com/privacy and California Privacy Notice at https://art19.com/privacy#do-not-sell-my-info.

Moe is joined by Joan Walsh, National Affairs Correspondent for 'The Nation' and a CNN political contributor. The two discuss her recent piece for 'The Nation,' which is titled, "The Ideas Behind the Buffalo Massacre Are Now Mainstream on the Right." They also talk about today's news that Senate Republicans have blocked gun reform legislation in the wake of the Uvalde school shooting in Texas and the racist mass shooting in Buffalo, New York.

Eva Mireles e Irma García han sido elogiadas por sus acciones valientes para proteger a los niños en el tiroteo de la primaria de Uvalde, Texas.

Savannah Guthrie is on the ground in Uvalde, Texas, with tributes to the victims of that school shooting and new details on the investigation. Plus, the families of the victims speak out to Savannah. And, the heroic actions of the two teachers, Irma Garcia and Eva Mireles, who made the ultimate sacrifice to protect their students.

Say their names: In Uvalde: Nevaeh Bravo, Jackie Cazares, Makenna Lee Elrod, Jose Flores, Eliana Garcia, Irma Garcia, Uziyah Garcia, Amerie Jo Garza, Xavier Lopez, Jayce Luevanos, Tess Marie Mata, Miranda Mathis, Eva Mireles, Alithia Ramirez, Annabell Guadalupe Rodriguez, Maite Rodriguez, Alexandria Aniyah Rubio, Layla Salazar, Jailah Nicole Silguero, Eliahana Cruz Torres, Rojelio Torres. In Buffalo: Celestine Chaney, Roberta A. Drury, Andre Mackniel, Katherine Massey, Margus D. Morrison, Heyward Patterson, Aaron Salter, Geraldine Talley, Ruth Whitfield, Pearl Young. All gunned down by young men who should have had no access to an assault weapon in the first place. I have no meaningful response to such cruel slaughter. When I am in the most profound mourning, I turn to the composers whose music directly confronts that despair. Today that composer is Gustav Mahler. Since the victims were almost exclusively people of color, today for solace I turn to the extraordinary voices of women of color singing the music of Mahler. Roberta Alexander, Marian Anderson, Carol Brice, Oralia Dominguez, Jessye Norman, Florence Quivar, Shirley Verrett, Lucretia West provide balm for the depths of despair that we are all feeling right now. They are joined on the podium by some of the greatest conductors of the twentieth century: Leonard Bernstein, Christoph von Dohnányi, Bernard Haitink, Paul Kletzki, Hans Knappertsbusch, Erich Leinsdorf, Zubin Mehta, Pierre Monteux, Fritz Reiner, and Frieder Weissmann. This episode is also offered in memory of and in gratitude for the life of the great Lucretia West, who died on 21 February 2022 at the age of 99.

Another horrifying mass shooting, another politicized argument over guns ensues. But why isn't our obvious mental illness crisis at the forefront of this dialogue? Today I had the honor of sitting down with Amber Ybarra, whose loved one, Eva Mireles, was one of the teachers and heroes tragically killed this week in the Uvalde, Texas elementary school shooting. Also frustrated by the perpetual left-right gun debate that's come from this, Amber is here with an unabashed point of view, shedding light on the deep-rooted, underlying issue of the sickness permeating our culture that's far too often overlooked and left out of this conversation.

A gunman killed at least 18 children and a teacher on Tuesday in a rural Texas elementary school, officials said, in the deadliest American elementary school shooting since the massacre at Sandy Hook Elementary a decade ago. The slayings took place just before noon at Robb Elementary School, where second through fourth graders in Uvalde, a small city west of San Antonio, were preparing to start summer break this week. Eva Mireles, a teacher of 17 years who taught fourth graders at Robb Elementary, was shot and killed by the gunman while trying to protect her students, her aunt, Lydia Martinez Delgado, said by phone. Ms. Mireles — who was in her early 40s, married and had a child — was “very loved” and an avid hiker who took pride in teaching mostly students of Latino heritage, Ms. Delgado said. “She was the fun of the party.”   See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.
