Maybe every school should have a member of the NRA, appropiate local/county church or county Republican organization, on a full time basis, stationed at every school entry/exit. The entry monitors having thoughts and prayers will clearly prevent these mass shootings and also they will be required interdict those evil doers with Bible quotations to cast their plan asunder.

Mitch McConnell Is Pulling His Favorite Move After Mass Shootings
THOUGHTS AND PRAYERS
Senate Minority Leader Mitch McConnell is appealing to bipartisanship in the wake of the Uvalde massacre. That seems to be a recipe for nothing.

Bipartisanship, when Mitch says it, means 'don't you go doing divisive stuff like proposing anything we'd disagree with.'

Looks like another mass shooting was held in Oklahoma today at a Memorial Day celebration. Forty rounds fired, eight people shot and one dead. So far...

The gunmaker whose rifle was used in Uvalde shooting reportedly runs direct-to-consumer ads aimed at younger buyers

They care only about profit.

If more looked at the gun industry, in the same light as a drug pusher. What a difference this would be. They a pushing the gun just like a drug. Both drugs and guns cause addiction.

NRA/Repugnicans are more concerned with the "rights" of the perpetrators than the lives of their victims. There is no solution to arming the incompetent, irresponsible, or homicidal in that.
Red flag measures should be permanent until an application for reassessment for responsible competence is submitted and considered.

This was once the shooter started a no win situation. Monday morning quarterbacking by people who were not there is just that.....


This was a fluid fast evolving, overlapping authorities. Ego's and the unqualified added to just plain out of their league scared ....there was enough incompetent people to go around. What makes anyone think the next will be any different?

There will be a scapegoat blamed, yet the true guilty will never be punished. The ones who promote and drive the addiction to the gun....

The gun is a tool not a plaything. Somewhere alone the way it s not becoming a plaything.

Before long they're going to hang this around the neck of the Uvalde police chief rather than admit the unfettered access to military grade weapons is a problem.
