"There's nothing we can do." Says the only country with this problem.
Ah yes, those crazy random psychos who go busting through the doors to kill kids.
Wait, sorry, I've just been informed the "psychos" in question are the children that go to the schools that are being shot up. Welp. Certainly can't do anything about that, sorry, thoughts and prayers!
Are they even offering thought and prayers anymore? Now it's just "fact of life" and "price of freedumb".
Probably not.
Republican's new motto: When the least you can do is too much, just accept it's a fact of life.
He was standing behind bullet proof glass when he said this by the way.
Ugh. This time the "psycho" is just a 14 year-old kid.
There were three armed SROs in the school. What the fuck does he mean when he says schools are soft targets? Should all the students be armed too?
NRA, who would gladly supply the weapons - for a price, of course - says YES!!!
Now, I hear you say, that would preemptively arm any wannabe school shooters and eliminate any leftover threshold for their shooting sprees, but the NRA has a solution to that problem too: more fear of guns means more people buying more guns to protect themselves from all the guns in circulation.
It's beautiful, isn't it? * wipes away single tear with dollar signs in both eyes *
JD should shut his stupid trap lol
School shootings will not stop his time with the couch.
Better security: not letting parents give their kids assault rifles for Xmess gifts, maybe?
LOL, trump picked a synth as his running mate
The Railroad wouldn’t like you speaking ill of synths like that, you know.
