Let me remind you, that it was one lone Texas Border Patrol Officer than ran into 'the line of fire', used a (dare I say it) gun and killed the guy that went off his rocker.
That person is a True American Hero.
And Rickey "when will we ever learn", learn WHAT ?

Armed teachers would just be the first target of any shooter. Paraphrasing something I heard among todays coverage of the shooting. About the more guns would make us safer nonsense. Texas has more guns than every other state and it didn't help today did it?

Well it's another case of our 2nd amendment at work, Ms. Boebert. Waiting for the gut wrenching plea for "thoughts and prayers" from the right.
Since this latest massacre of six and seven year olds, I've seen it asked here and there around the internet "what is this country coming to?" We know good and goddamn well why our country is coming to this. And it's not about mental illness as the cons continue to want to peg it. There are just as many crazy people per capita in the UK as we have. And our firearms homicide rate is 40 times the rate in the UK. 40 FUCKING TIMES. After their first mass school shooting in Dunblane Scotland in 1996, it took the Brits a year to outlaw possession of anything but long barreled, non-automatic hunting rifles and shotguns. And now our gun homicide rate is 40 times theirs.
It came to this when we didn't do jack shit after Charles Whitman shot up the University of Texas in 1966, or when we didn't do jack shit after Columbine for christ's sake.

If more guns make us safer why to we have to give little kids active shooter drills? Just asking for a friend. Of course the Repubs will trot out the usual excuses and deflections. It's automatic with them. With so many mass shootings in the good ol' U.S. of A they've had lots and lots of practice.
IMO if you've taken money from the NRA you're compromised. This goes for ANY politician.

This country already many times over is the most heavily armed per person. Also is the leader in school shootings. I heard last night on TV, that the number one cause of death for children is gun violence in our country also.
So once again the answer is the same more guns?
I say time for a different approach.

Our totally irrational irrespon$ible policy of providing unlimited free access to ma$$ produced firearm$ with virtually no accountability has everything to do with the pu$h to defend our $acred right to provide vulnerable moving target$ in public $hooting gallerie$ for well-armed deranged homical person$ under their $econd amendment privilege.
Oh, and Ted Nugent gets to have machine gun$ and Wayne La Pierre get$ more bespoke zoot suit$ and private luxury jetliner$. Follow the money.
