The Dotard needed notes to talk to the survivors. Because he has no empathy.

"I hear you."

Many mass murders are perpetrated by Democrats, New York Republican Rep. Claudia Tenney said Wednesday in a radio discussion on gun control following the recent mass shooting at a Florida high school.

“Obviously, there’s a lot of politics in it,” the congresswoman told the “Focus on the State Capitol” podcast hosted by Fred Dicker. “And it’s interesting that so many of these people that commit the mass murders end up being Democrats, but we don’t want to, the media doesn’t talk about that either.”

The moral bankruptcy of the GOP knows no bounds.

Florida lawmakers on Tuesday passed a resolution declaring pornography a public health risk, less than an hour after they rejected a motion to consider a bill that would ban assault rifles.

A lot of these kids will be voting in a few years.... by then they will know which politicians take action or not.

It's more important to see how their parents vote.
We do not want the anger typical in teenagers played out in schools violently.

Here is a comment from one of the students now in Tallahassee canvassing for stricter gun control and getting lukewarm responses:

Proponents of stricter gun control, however, seem unlikely to be appeased by what they perceive as half-measures. Students at the Capitol Wednesday denounced the Legislature for having voted down a proposal on Tuesday to consider banning assault weapons. “The people around us failed us,” declared Delaney Tarr, a student at Stoneman Douglas. “And if they continue to fail us, then they will no longer be in office because soon we will have the ability to vote, and we will vote them out.”

These assholes in the FL legislature voted out an assault weapons ban this week and now facing intense well deserved heat the students and parents.

Consider America as a living organism. A huge sick living organism. The millions and millions of guns are the carcinogenic cells in this body. There is absolutely no therapy to remove these cancer cells.

So any discussion on this issue is completely in vain.

No irony, no cynism here. Only bitterness.

It can be done, but it will require willingness and time. There is no quick fix for this, the shift of the apathetic middle will be paramount.
