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.”

If you outlaw abortion then there will always be enough kids for the shootings, so why give up guns?

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
