12-year-old boy writes goodbye letter to his family during school lockdown

[Yo_Mama_Been_Loggin]

Filled with fear a school shooter was about to take his life, 12-year-old Ajani Dartiguenave wrote a heartbreaking goodbye letter to his family.

"Right now I am scared to death," he wrote. "I need a warm, soft hug."

"Mom, I hope that you're going to be OK with me gone," he wrote. "Goodbye."

Dartiguenave wrote the note during a frightening one-hour lock down at his Charlotte, North Carolina, elementary school last Friday after officials received an anonymous threat.

"I was very scared," Ajani said. "I thought that many of my friends would die friends."

1. This breaks my heart. There is NO GOOD REASON for our children to STILL be experiencing this horror.

2. This breaks mine also. The fact that this environment exists for our students is terrible.

I never considered such a thing when I was a student. As a teacher it definitely existed, even tho we did shooter drills and took classes on how to approach a possible shooter. We were actually instructed to approach from our side because a bullet might hit fewer organs than confronting head on and to throw something noisy like a steel garbage can lid because the noise might distract the shooter.

These kids are going to need a lot of help.

3. Thank America's gun-jumpers for that.

4. This is what the gun bullies and the politicians they own

have done to the children.

5. How heartbreaking!

All of these children must be traumatized thinking that this could be a possibility for them at any time. Poor little boy.

How I despise these gun-humpers and their sick fetish!

6. Absolutely heart breaking. And I grew

up crouching under my (wooden!) school desk to escape nuclear attacks from the Soviet Union.
