The American actor Matthew McConaughey took a stand for the new massacre with 21 dead inside school halls in the state of Texas, describing armed violence as an “epidemic we can control.”
“As you all know, there was another shooting this time in my hometown of Ovalde, Texas,” Matthew McConaughey wrote in a social media post.
“Once more, we proved tragically that we failed to be responsible for the rights granted to us by our freedoms.
Every American should look in the mirror and wonder, what do we really appreciate? How do we fix the problem?
What small sacrifices can everyone make today to maintain a healthier and safer nation, state and neighborhood tomorrow?
“We can not find excuses and accept these tragic realities as a status quo,” he said in a statement.
Notable is the Oscar-winning actor spent the first 12 years of his life in Uwaldelocated about 80 miles west of San Antonio where the attack took place by 18-year-old Salvador Ramos, a high school student.
He called on all Americans to “renegotiate what they want out of necessity,” adding that “we need to rearrange our values ​​and find common ground on this catastrophic American reality.”
“It’s an epidemic we can control, and no matter where we stand, we all know we can do better. We have to do better. Steps must be taken so that no parent experiences what their parents experience in Uvalde and the other parents (of the other attacks). “Those who left their loved ones at school without knowing that today was the last goodbye,” the actor noted. “No word can heal your loss, but if prayers can comfort you, we will continue.”
