These mind blowing tragedies are destined to continue.......the genie is out of the bottle........the NRA, having bribed those in power, have been allowed brainwash far too many gullible idiots that it is their God given right to own/carry a gun.

Well, those little kids in the pics will be just as vulnerable as the others in their classroom should some jackass come to shoot the place up.  The good guy/bad guy NRA line was defeated in Uvalde, Texas when the brave, strutting law enforcement officers were too scared to go after the bad guy while he was inside the classroom killing kids.  People who are as spineless as this should not be in law enforcement.

So, some nerdy looking young fellow is strolling down the street with an AR-15 slung over his shoulder: is he a good guy with a gun or a bad guy?  Only one way to find out, but regardless the most important thing is he is within his rights.  And for the people he kills?  Thoughts and prayers.

 

The preacher and the deacon were prayin' one day
Along come a bear comin' down that way
The preacher told the deacon to say a prayer
He said, "lord, a prayer won't kill this bear"

How about declaring the NRA a terrorist organization?  They take in a lot of $$$ and give a lot of it to the fine members of US Congress.  Guaranteed they have ZERO intention of derailing their gravy train.
