8. I wish to hell we could bottle Beto up and serve him to all Dems

They need to display this same level of resolve and courage. When they don't, when they just send platitudes and whine that nothing can be done, they normalize the inaction so that nothing ever will be done. They need to break that pattern and show us that they fucking care. I want to see them anguished like we are.

Look, I don't really like kids much and I cried like an idiot. If you aren't anguished by 19 children (20 at Sandy Hook) getting horribly murdered, you are not human. The Dems need to show us that they hurt when this happens, just like the rest of us.
