Nah, let’s just arm all kids from age 4 and up.
I have an idea that I think we can all agree with: How about we just arm those kids who are in close proximity to Marjorie Taylor Greene?
They’d be treated, and responded to, as a lethal threat.
How about this, we take all the unemployed MAGAts who want us to arm the schools, we give them guns, and make them sit in each and every school room in the country.
They’ll likely never actually stop a shooting, but maybe if we make them sit through Grade 3 a few more times, some of it will sink in, finally.
That would be a public service. Too many of those MAGA people couldn’t come within miles of passing the 3rd-grade curriculum.
(my bolding in the quote)
Ted Cruz has literally been copy-pasting the exact same tweet every time a mass shooting happens.
Of course, the celebratory waving of that rag hasn’t been going on for 160 years. It’s been more like 80 years, hasn’t it?
Will you accept Teddy saying that MOAR COPS woukd have stopped the shooting? You know, like how it did in Uvalde?
Of course. Sorry if it sounded like I was putting you down. We all make mistakes and I want to be on the side that recognizes and corrects false information.
Would that “one armed officer” happen to be Barry Allen, Patrolling all doors within a split second of each other?
Not a bad idea, Teddy.
It was a private school. They could have all the armed guards they wanted.
Maybe they took their Christianity seriously?
Gun control bills have been passed in Denver. That’s not the dumb part.
Here’s the reaction of the GOP: ““It’s not a gun issue,” Winter ( a Republican) said. “For us, it’s a self-preservation issue, it’s a constitutional issue, it’s the protection of our lives. And I’m scared. We hope there’s no ill-intended consequences from this. … But I’m scared there will be.”
One of their objections was that people might not seek help if they were afraid their guns would be taken away. Oh noes.
In Green Hills? They were more likely Capital C Christians who worship Supply Side Jesus. I’m still waiting for the other shoe to drop about the shooter being abused for their possible trans issue.
I looked up real estate prices in Green Hills. What is available starts at just a smidge under $4M. The recently solds are a bit less, but still pricey. I think your assessment is spot on. Prai$e Je$u$!
I heard a woman on Rachel Maddow last night (Hockley? who had a son who died at Sandy Hook) who phrased it well. We have more guns per capita by a wiiiiide margin over other industrialized nations, and our deaths from shootings is 26 times greater than the next highest country. How in the hell is more guns making us safer???
Sorry, you’re doing that thing that automatically nullifies any point one attempts to make WRT Republicans, namely, invoking reason and/or logic. Points for optimism, however.
Yeah. Sigh. I know.
I just thought it was such a compelling point.
For normal humans, it is. Probably for all mammals. Maybe for all vertebrates. My cats found your point compelling.
Republicans seem to have de-volved into a different species. Of course, De-Volution is Just a Theory, amirite?
