(431 posts)48. The NRA is Laughing At the Dead

and massacres like this are likely going to be occur many times over ad infinitum/ad nauseum until we come to our senses. Start by reinstating the assault weapons ban. Continue with heavily regulating the ammunition for the same. Sue the NRA out of business and put its management in prison for several counts of being an accessory to murder. Guns do kill people. If not, maybe one of you NRA trolls reading this post needs to get the Pentagon/DOD on the phone and inform them to the contrary.

A Moment of Introspecting a "Kid"
So, what could a "kid" be thinking nowadays....Let's say for a moment that I'm a kid, and I want to go to the movies....but it's not safe there anymore. Well, there's always the Mall...but it's not safe there anymore...Well, I can play with my friends in the schoolyard...but it's not safe there anymore. I could be shot in any of those three places. I've read and seen it on the TV and the Internet.
See what kind of world we've made for them? Do you see it now? How can children "be the future" if they're slain beforehand?
