[Sandy Hook Anthology] was a very powerful, moving read. I cried more than once Kate O'Neal. In this book, I intend to reveal, through an empirical analysis, what a safe environment for 21st century schoolchildren should look like in a lousy society that is weaponly divided. But foremost, this book, or letters to the children of Newtown, written in prose as a perfume of nard, is not a claim against or for the right to manufacture, carry or not carry firearms, but a tribute, or a Medal of Honor to the 26 victims of the Sandy Hook school massacre and other victims of gun-related tragedies around the world. It is also an urgent call to the government and the armed-civil-society to stop using parents or families as scapegoats to achieve their agenda but to unit to face the challenges of our daily life. Especially, this book praises the heroic action of the six women who died on duty while providing security and instruction for the children of Sandy Hook. By writing this book, I wish not to question the government's will to have a gun-control law nor to open the victims' wounds but instead to bring healing by refocusing their responsibility toward those who perished and the surviving members of their families, to tell them that this tragedy is not a ticket to political influence but a time to reflect on the inability of our society to provide safety and security and an invitation to look to the sky where God promises to bring a new world free from death, suffering and calamity; a world where all families and their kids will enjoy the beauty of life and the glory of God forever.
