A serious video this time, and a tough one to make. I hope some people find value in here somewhere, even if it's a less than perfect attempt. Even so, I think it was an important statement to make in the wake of the Parkland shooting.

In other words people the buyer is familiar with, but may not count as a friend or family member. It's still considered a social connection though.
