The PSA media commercial was put together using subliminal messaging. The commercial displayed how we as student, teachers, and every day citizens go about our day without noticing the warning signs. The author message was very magical how she showed to variations on how we live, communicate, with one another.

The student that is being depicted in the video as the mass shooter, happens to be the students that is having acceptance issues with other students. That student is shown be bullied.
The author suggests a chilling and a scary detail of how easy it is to attend school and not know that there is a student with an AK 47 that has more rounds than you can fathom to kill you and everyone around you.
