"With the parents consent" part?

Such a prospect must be scaring the blood soaked pants off gun lover slaves and their NRA masters.

I've suggested that the NYT keep a running tally - daily - of NRA money going to legislators and candidates. Daily. Same place in the paper every day, so we can see and keep being reminded of the bribery. Add to this account their NRA-directed votes.

Next, legislators must be required to attend crime scenes of school shootings - immediately, while the dead are still on site.

Now that we're at the point of these shootings being recorded, Democratic congresspeople need to get up on the House and Senate floor and show those videos. Not to an empty chamber, but to the fully assembled halls.

Legislators must be required to participate in cleaning up the damage done by school shootings. Clean up the blood and gore.

Not for photo ops, but to get their hands dirty cleaning up the damage they themselves have caused by taking bribes.

Since the latest shooter is going on trial the photos will be tendered evidence.

bullets do to bodies. Most people think it's nice and neat, the way Hollywood shows it.

I'm pretty sure that if a child of mine were murdered in one of these horrors, I'd want everyone to see what happened.

Remember that Emmet Till's mother had an open coffin for her son's funeral because she wanted the world to see what had been done to her son.

People need to see what was done to those children.

Like one kid with his hand still on a classroom door knob while his lifeless body hangs from it. Like the two girls they lay on the floor, dead holding hands as they bled out. These images need to be seen. I hope someone convinces the parents to allow this. The country needs to wake up. The NRA and the politicians that support them are killing us. They are domestic terrorists, both the NRA and the republican politicians that have been bought by them. They all have blood on their hands. They are sociopaths.
