A 2nd Kentucky shooting kills one and injures another at a college — both in Louisville, hours apart
Republican politicians don’t like getting blamed for gun deaths, but they are somehow incapable of introducing sensible legislation to make gun deaths less frequent. They know that it is up to them to solve this problem. They are cowards.
Citation needed.
I’d wager that they get off on it.
Here’s my citation:
What’s weird to me is that apparently Republican men don’t care if their kids are shot at school. Or at least, they would still vote for Republicans/guns even if their kids were shot.
“Act of evil” can just mean bad. When Republican lawmakers use it, it’s more likely to mean, “this is something only church can fix.”
I’ll just note the Republican women sure are still voting that way.
Easily available guns, instant “background check” or gun show loophole, no waiting, nope, nothing in common between these two events.
Many just cut out the middleman and shoot their kids themselves.
Toxic masculinity is a hell of a drug
Yeah.
“unrelated” “targeted” anything but the guns can be blamed.
fewer women all the time though
We are rapidly approaching the point in which some community in the United States suffers a mass shooting that is interrupted by another unrelated mass shooting.
We don’t care if kids get killed, we don’t care that we support outright evil, but now it might drive away our base? Oh, it’s women. That don’t matter, they’ll vote how their husbands tell them to.
If you outlaw abortion then there will always be enough kids for the shootings, so why give up guns?
I was being sarcastic and then thought maybe that’s the policy.
It’s so unfortunate that there’s absolutely nothing we can do about these mass shootings. It’s just the cost of freedom, and a sacrifice we must all bear for the greater good. /s
The Aristocrats! America!
First thought: Dark humor
Second thought: Statistically speaking, it’s eventually going to happen…
Third thought: Wait, how do we know it hasn’t already happened?
Fourth thought: I need my barf bucket!
