We are obviously first hand living right in the definition of insanity with regard to mass shootings

[NewHendoLib]

they are happening in rapidly increasing frequency. NOTHING is done. Right wing politicians come out and toss out the thoughts and prayers. And of course the killings will continue, and the frequency will increase.

What a bunch of dumb asses. If nothing is done, then why WOULD they stop?

Guns - and gun nuts - are making a mockery out of life itself.

1. Since we have an utterly paralyzed Congress, nothing will happen.

There will be many more mass shootings.

[brewens]

2. I just watched the latest press conference. Very little information. Shooter killed, nine dead,

the rest was hero responders and thoughts and prayers. How many of those cops are gun humping MAGAts? If they risk their lives, that's a push.

3. The right wingers aren't even "doing the same thing over and over again and expecting a different

result." With "same thing" being nothing.

THIS IS THE RESULT THEY WANT.

They WANT this. This result is the goal.

How can I say this? It seems inconceivable... Because this result is inevitable with their policy priorities. And they won't change their policy no matter what the consequences of that policy. Ergo, the result is the goal, because the result is unavoidable given the policy they have pursued and achieved.

4. There is a photo. Really, there are no words, but maybe it will stop the madness.

[NewHendoLib]

5. the problem with posting pics is that the false flag conspiracy theorists then come out

I remember that the Boston Marathon bombing had very graphic videos and photos - and all that happened is a whole flock of deniers - the Alex Jones types - emerged.

We are caught between a rock and a hard place, because with more guns than people and politicians in the pockets of the gun lobby, nothing will happen. It ends up always being about money and power.

6. Watched The News Mix On Direct TV To Listen To The Press Conference.....

that was on MSNBC. Right next to the MSNBC screen was the Fox screen on this News Mix.

MSNBC's crawler indicated that it was a 'mass shooting' with 8 dead and the ninth as the shooter in Texas.

Fox News was talking about the crime rate rising in NYC. Hmmm.... I wonder why?

7. I'm very glad I'm in my late 50's and have no children.

So long and thanks for all the fish.

[Artcatt]

8. This is all purposeful, intentional, by design and 100% to plan.

[tetedur]

9. We are in a war against the insane.

We are unarmed while we allow the insane to acquire the weapons to kill us.

Our government will do nothing to rectify the situation because they are corrupt pawns of those who profit from the sale of those weapons of war.

We will lose and lose and lose over and over and over.

Both sides are insane.

10. to the tune of Johnny comes marching home

You're mom won't be coming home tonite

She's dead, She's dead

Some fool with a gun shot her in the head

She's dead, she's dead

Working at a convenience store to try to make
your life a little more
Some fool shot her with his .44 and
You don't get to see her anymore

She's dead, she's dead

They claim they're pro-life but
She's dead, She's dead
The money they get is just too damn good
She's dead, She's dead
Thoughts and prayers
Is all they got,
For you and you're just a little tot
they hope that you soon forgot
How they stood and lied
She's dead


this started going through my mind last night at dinner. Perhaps it can be used in some way to stop this carnage

11. Good vs Evil; light vs. dark

12. I wish you weren't right about this, but it's obvious you are.

Mass killings, atrocious as they are, have become "normalized" by RWers and the gun lobby, who direct their outrage at anyone they feel threatens their 2nd Amendment rights.
