The husband of one of the teachers killed in a Texas school shooting this week collapsed and died on Thursday while preparing for his wife's funeral, the family said.

Joe Garcia had been married to high school sweetheart, Irma Garcia, for 24 years before she was gunned down Tuesday at Robb Elementary School in Uvalde.

“I don’t even know how to feel. I don’t believe it. I don’t want to believe it” that Joe Garcia has passed away, Irma Garcia's nephew, John Martinez, told NBC News.

You miserable, rotten, murder-enabling, gun-worshipping fucks just tore a family apart at the seams because your guns are more precious than human lives. Fuck all of you.

She was very disturbed when chalk showed up on her sidewalk/ Not a word about thesedead children and teachers.

And why hasn't the Supreme Court condemned these gun deaths - they are not neutral.
