Another horrifying mass shooting, another politicized argument over guns ensues. But why isn't our obvious mental illness crisis at the forefront of this dialogue? Today I had the honor of sitting down with Amber Ybarra, whose loved one, Eva Mireles, was one of the teachers and heroes tragically killed this week in the Uvalde, Texas elementary school shooting. Also frustrated by the perpetual left-right gun debate that's come from this, Amber is here with an unabashed point of view, shedding light on the deep-rooted, underlying issue of the sickness permeating our culture that's far too often overlooked and left out of this conversation.
