An Ohio photographer's work is going viral online after she posted images of students using the popular hashtag #IfIDieInASchoolShooting to take a stand against school shootings.

Christina Angel of Paint the Sky Photography in Cincinnati, Ohio, shared photos of students ranging from elementary to high school with quotes using the somber hashtag. The professional photographer told a local Fox affiliate that she hopes the project will give students a visual voice on the matter.

Angel said she started the project after she noticed teenagers, including her own daughter, writing sobering messages using the hashtag on Twitter.

"There could be no tomorrow, and that's a reality we have to deal with going to school every day," seventeen-year-old Andie Angel, the photographer's daughter, told the outlet.

Each of the children photographed in the project are holding signs that show their own thoughts based on the hashtag prompt.

[[she posted images of students using the popular hashtag #IfIDieInASchoolShooting to take a stand against school shootings.]]

Let’s be clear hear- they aren’t “Taking a stand against school shootings” They ARE however taking a stand against our constitutional and inalienable right to own firearms for self protection

IF they were truly ‘taking a stand against school shootings’ they would be DEMANDING that schools arm teachers, hire guards, use metal detectors, force kids to use clear backpacks- screen for mentally ill students and kids with behavioral problems- etc

We were able to lock down airplane security where millions of people fly every day- yet we can’t lock down schools against violence?

These kids need to be reminded that only a handful of kids within any school where a shooting takes place are injured or killed, and there are over 100,000 public schools in the US.

If I was one of these kids I’d worry more about being killed or injured on my way to or from school.

"...senselessly terrorize young children..."


Precisely correct.
A kid has a FAR greater chance of becoming a victim of a new-driver classmate texting while driving.

GMTA. The commute to/from school is absolutely their greatest exposure to risk.

So she hijacked the kids’ hashtag to promote her professional photography.

The kids would also be cracking down on their peers who bully and ostracize other students.

Don’t worry kids. Governments killed about 1 million people in the 20th century for every kid killed in a school shooting in the 21st century. You want to be disarmed and have an all-powerful Government so death inflicted by a uniformed government employee on the side of a ditch is much more likely in your future.

Well, kids, you’re, like, actually super more likely to, ya know, get shot in your home or, uh, neighborhood. Yeah.

If I die in a school shooting, it will be because people like David Hogg and his controllers disarmed normal people - so they could have the power they dream of.

Criminals aren’t going to stop being criminals because people post a sob story or a list of their fears on the internet.

These kids are morons. If they knew anything, they would know that they have a better chance during their pathetic lives of any of the following:

A.) Killing themselves through drug overdose.

B.) Killing themselves and their friends as they update their Facebook status while driving.

C.) Winning the lottery

D.) Being killed by an astroid.

Than being killed in a school shooting.

“B.) Killing themselves and their friends as they update their Facebook status while driving.”

The teen deaths while driving preceded Facebook by many years.

Kids-—cars-—often problems.

These anti-gun nut kids are morons.

If you die of a school shooting its because leftards have sacrificed YOU (easy enough as they dont care) on their altar to their Own Power.

Sane American need to push these destructive scum supporting wankers faces in THEIR OWN MESS (as you do a stupid dog to teach them to behave)

Oh I know, I just used FB as an example.

Back three and a half years ago four obnoxious little 16yo sh*tstains in high school went out for a joy ride doing nearly twice the posted speed limit crossing the centerline at the crest of a hill hitting a Sheriff’s Deputy head on. Three of the sh*tstains and the Deputy were killed instantly.
