That guy Dick Cheney shot in the face died.

Cheney didn’t know that you weren’t supposed to point loaded guns at peoples faces. It wasn’t his fault.

According to Reich wing Cancel Culture, if it happened today Cheney would go to prison. Oh, no, my bad; they liked Dick Cheney so gun safety never mattered. 

Cheney didn’t even have to resign from his position as Vice President, after shooting that guy in the face...

Maybe it's because I live here, but it feels like Colorado has A LOT of mass shootings you'd think we'd do something about that, I mean we were the place of the Columbine shooting, you'd think that'd change some things, but it seems to just be getting worse and worse

Sending positive vibes to the victims of the Club Q shooting in Colorado Springs, their families, and the families of those who died, the LGBTQIA+ community deserves better but shout out to the patrons who subdued the guy preventing further loss of life

A change is desperately needed but unfortunately history tells us it won't come, Republicans weren't willing to change after Sandy Hook when literal children were murdered, why would the injury and death of people whose rights they want to erase change that?

I'm just so tired, tired of it being obvious that something needs to be done only for nothing to really change

This guy had literally been arrested and charged with menacing and threats because he was going to set off a bomb, maybe the Red Flag law would have helped if it weren't for the fact that a significant number of Colorado cops outright refuse to enforce it and many are extremely hesitant to enforce it. We cannot know if it would have helped prevent this for sure, but I have to wonder if it at least would have made it significantly more difficult

the whole series of tweets is relevant, but that one about “University of California did a comprehensive study of school / mass / spree shooters of all ages and found that the common link between them ALL is a vehement hatred of women”

School gun report for the week of 11/19/23-11/25/23: Ex-Cop loses it at Trunk or Treat

11/19/23: Headline: Opinion: An 11-year-old who survived Uvalde says he and his friends will ‘never be the same’ Headline speaks for itself. Yet, the gun nerds will dismiss the mental wellness of these children so they can have overly modded ASSAULT RIFLES. *** 11/20/23: Headline: Additional Charges Against Man In School Shooting Incident A former St. Louis County cop was arrested for firing…

Michigan's Constitutional Sheriffs Problem

As of this writing, our new ungerrymandered democratically elected state legislature is working hard to pass common-sense firearm legislation that will help keep people safe. The final bill package still needing the Governor’s signature is the extreme risk protection order or “red flag” law. This law would allow local law enforcement to remove firearms from a person’s home and express a desire to…

Nashville School Shooting Hits Home

By Toni Mitchell eXpress News and Views—Like many people in this country and worldwide, I have been gripped with sadness and anger over the senseless shootings this week at a small Christian school in Nashville, Tenn. For those unaware, a 28-year-old woman armed with three assault-style weapons shot her way into Covenant School, a private elementary located on the grounds of Covenant…

He shot the man 9 times.

He shot the man four times and he fell limp to the ground.

AND THEN he shot the man some more!

He walked over to the man and shot him point-blank on the ground.

Then he moved to the side, up near his head and shot him point-blank one last time!

Yes he's going to be prosecuted. Of course he is. You all know this. He had to know it. Even if there was no camera recording what he did, the number of shots, the fact that he was already out, on the ground, the fact that he walked up to shoot him point-blank (which can be determined by bullet angles & powder residue) before finally capping the guy with that final, ninth bullet...

Yeah he's going to jail.

Anyone who thinks there isn't a MASSIVE propaganda campaign going against Trump just has to type MAGA into the Tumblr search box.

Apparently Joe Biden is a war hero now. And everyone left of center has now decided that they were AGAINST the lockdowns in 2020, that it was all Trump's fault. Have yet to see an actual issue raised either in support of Biden or against Trump...

Propaganda isn't supposed to give you something to think about. It's inducing an emotional response; reaction. If you're thinking then it's not doing it's job.
