Hell, I just saw an article on NYT on how the GOP is looking to loosen gun restrictions after recent shootings. Among other things, they want to reduce "No gun zones". I do have to say, I always thought the idea of "No gun zones" was a bit silly. Labeling any area as a "No gun zone" only means law abiding citizens will not bring their guns there. We are not worried about law abiding citizens...

Its meant as if you were dumb enough to bring a gun in the area that you would face stronger punishments for it. I can understand why its silly. But then again it was a compromise between gun-sexual's and normal human begins, so yeah it would only end up being silly.

They won't stop until you can buy a military assault rifle at the corner bodega, no credit check necessary. Just like our founding fathers intended.

But its the US. So school shootings are just part of the norm now adays, right? No matter who does it, no matter how many die, it ultimately means nothing, as nothing is ever done about it.

Dude, don't you know? It is only wrong to kill a kid before he or she is born. After that it isn't the GOP's problem. It is all good.

Yea, the problem is I do know it. The problem is around half the US population does not know it nor wants to, and keeps voting for those wretched kid killing hypocrites to be in office and letting it continue.

Sorry, just the fact that if I was a victim of a school shooting and I lay their dying knowing that not only will nobody care but that nothing will ever be done to prevent it from happening to another.... just infuriates me.

Twitter needs to die.

Elon ought to decide he needs to run TickTok or even Meta next.

They will fully use anything against whatever they consider to be 'The Others' to further their political power. So, me knowing that mtg is a sack of sh*t automatically discredits anything she says, does not mean somebody else will know to do the same.

But its the US. So school shootings are just part of the norm now adays, right? No matter who does it, no matter how many die, it ultimately means nothing, as nothing is ever done about it. But they will certainly attempt use this shooting as a spring board to limit Trans people some more anyhow.

Unsurprisingly, I couldn't care less if Twitter dwindles to nothing... except for one thing. I sure hope my tax dollars don't end up propping up the banks who were stupid enough to finance the purchase.
