#BREAKING: Well-Regulated Militia Opens Fire In Robb Elementary School in Uvalde TX; Cheap Thoughts And Useless Prayers Now Being Rushed To The Scene ... more on this soon-to-be-forgotten-and-then-repeated story as it develops ...

The absolute horror. Those poor babies. Rinse and repeat. At what point will enough be enough?

[Chainfire]

1. For the people who support unrestricted gun rights, there are no limits, or we would have

found them years ago. We have now begun the countdown to the claims of "false flag operations." It is always someone else's fault. It is a goddamn shame, but there it is.

[walkingman]

2. Conservatism and Capitalism - there is never enough pain or profit.

[slater71]

5. And the fuckin NRA.

[Baitball Blogger]

6. +1

[sop]

3. Republicans will say it happened because the 18-year-old was mentally ill.

They won't mention that one of the first things Trump did as president was strike down the Obama-era rule prohibiting the mentally ill from buying firearms.

[Probatim]

24. Don't forget video games.

It covered the fuckwit in Buffalo, I'm sure they'll be talking about video games on fucks nooze tonight.

[SallyHemmings]

4. I gave up on this country

when NOTHING happened after Sandy Hook.

Let's force birthing babies only to be mowed down learning how to read........

[inthewind21]

7. Let me add to that

Let's force birthing babies only to be mowed down trying to learn how to read on an empty stomach because they didn't have any breakfast, may not get any lunch may have to go home alone because mom can't afford to lose her job and are dealing with an illness because republicans allow everyone to have unrestricted access to guns but kill access to help with food insecurity, access to healthcare, a federal minimum wage, paid leave and a whole host of other safety nets.

[demigoddess]

8. AMEN!!!

[Soph0571]

9. This

The horror shit show that is these nasty fuckers

[BigDemVoter]

10. It will never be enough.

This shit is still going on years after Sandy Hook. We'll hear about a lot of "thoughts & prayers" and then this one will be forgotten just like all of the others before it. And given that this one is relatively "minor" ('only' 14 killed), it will be forgotten even more quickly.

Then we'll be all primed for the next one that will be sure to come in short order as they ALWAYS do. And there will be more 'thoughts & prayers' and more bullshit, and nothing will change.

[Squaredeal]

11. Texans, it's your culture, your problem.

Are you really “pro-life”?

[Paladin]

26. Yeah, thank God this awful shit is confined to Texas. (nt)

[Traildogbob]

12. Don't forget

The “Gawd given” right to have those well Regulated Militias.

[pamdb]

13. texas

I have no more fucks left to give.How many of these parents own guns? How many texans
want to be able to walk around with a gun on their hip likes it's the fucking wild west? How
many vote for republicans who want no control or restrictions on buying guns? If this is the society you want, these are the consequences.

[Paladin]

25. That's right. Pretend it's a problem confined to Texas.

There's proof that it's a national problem, every fucking day. Or hadn't you noticed?

[IronLionZion]

14. I doubt these militias are regulated very well

The right of kids to die shall not be infringed by the pro-life party

[mgardener]

15. Elsie Stefanik

Is married to a gun lobbyist.

She will never do anything about guns.

How many other Republicans are compromised?

[beaglelover]

16. I'm not a fan of twitter but that is one awesome tweet!

[MustLoveBeagles]

17. It's now up to 18 children and 3 adults

[paleotn]

18. Simple fact is....

and needs to repeated over and over and over again, they care about guns, power and money. They don't give two shits about children, born or not. They're telling us exactly who they are. Might as well repeat it again and again on the campaign trail, in the halls of Congress, everywhere.

[Evolve Dammit]

20. Absolutely correct, but we don't. Too polite and decorum y'know.

[Evolve Dammit]

19. Canada is making contingency plans for when US implodes. We are close. n/t

[AnrothElf]

21. I'll say it again. Repeal the 2A

Then pry their guns from their cold, dead hands

[Aussie105]

23. Or at least get people to really read and understand the historical contect of 2A?

You know, the whole "well regulated militia, potential invasion by foreign troops, muzzle loaders", etc?

[AnrothElf]

29. What good would that do? None.

Repealing it would do immense good

[hack89]

30. You don't need to

every reasonable gun control law you want is perfectly constitutional right now - AWB, registration, magazine size limits all constitutional.

[Aussie105]

22. So where in the mind of an 18 year old American

do all his problems get shifted to outside world to the extent that it's "logical" for him to take his guns and shoot up a school?

Seriously, trying to understand what went wrong there.
And how to stop it happening again.

Tots and pears won't cover it. Never will, never did.
The Now-is-not-the-time-for-talking-about gun-control response won't help either.

May I suggest an open search warrant for law enforcement to go through every house and business in Texas, and confiscate every lethal weapon and ammo they find, for a huge gun destruction party?
Bugger licences of any kind.

Yes, not going to happen.

Have your tots and pears ready for the next one, in 10, 9, 8, 7, 6 . . . . .

[BidenRocks]

27. I am pissed at the briefing Sherriff.

How fucking dare him in calling this a "mass causality event" instead of a massacre!

Let's be brutally honest how we label things. Slaughter also works!

[BrightKnight]

28. The large blood stain on the sidewalk outside was heartbreaking and

perhaps the full post crime scene photos should be public in these cases. The news stories are too abstract.

IDK, the families don’t need to see it but…
