I know that many don't agree with me, but ignoring these ever more frequent shootings is not the answer. They are becoming "normalized." I hate it, and refuse to accept that attitude. I don't claim to have the answers, but this is not it.

There were so many Dump flags, and idiots in lifted trucks with "III" and thin blue line stickers in this area. It's always these areas where the husbands kill their families. I wish we could ship all this trash to Idaho, where half of them want to go anyway. I've been anticipating there would be a local workplace shooting, and whaddyaknow... here we are.
