GOP keeps claiming Dems are coming to get your guns so buy them while you can. There was 8 years of this with Obama, so now they're doing this with Biden. Gun companies are raking it in. Sales were actually down during Trump.

With apologies to Tom Tomorrow.

What planet? What country?
One that has, as a major political party, an organization of idiots, racists, and dupes - aka republicans - that hate democracy and allow this carnage to continue in order to pander to their idiotic, racist, and duped base of voters.

I am really scared for this country right now. People need to wake the fuck up because the majority believe in Democratic policies even when it comes to gun control, but where are their damned votes? I believe that if it hadn't been for trump's horrible response to the pandemic, we might be seeing another 4 years of their lunacy.

What the hell else can we do to get people off their damned asses and vote for the responsible, rational, Democratic party?

Yet the GOP has made it their prime duty to take away MY "freedoms" by ignoring the 14th, 19th, 24th, and 26th Amendments. Imagine that.

As of Tuesday of this week, the 81st day of the year, we had 109 mass shootings (defined as four or more people shot or killed, not counting the shooter), 122 dead, 325 wounded. At this rate, by Jan 1, 2022, there will be approximately 547 mass shooting. Nah, no big deal.

The open and callous disregard for the safety of all Americans is completely stunning. How do we ever get past it?
