(TW!!!) Elementary School Shooting in Uvalde, TX

[MANiCURE 6 9,569]

This is horrifying... How am I supposed to go to sleep after reading this...

America, please, just get rid of guns...

Cue the canned responses on twitter from politicians taking donations from the NRA

”my heart is breaking”

”my heart is broken”

”I’m praying for the community”

”we stand with you” 

and the total classic and favourite 

“thoughts and prayers” 

[Hyoha 1,262]

Americans are a joke, as always.

All the prayers to Jesus and talks about freedom won’t save your children from getting murdered in schools. What a pathetic country.

Why are American politicians such assholes? Why can't they see what's right in front of their eyes? This is beyond reason.

As a Texan there is no issue that makes me angry to tears. These fvck faces will say they suck so bad at hunting they need a big ole AR-15. And sucking that bad at hunting is way more valuable than a fvcking child’s life. They have no ground to stand on calling themselves pro life.

As soon as the local bill that enable Texans can carry handguns without a license or training starting last Sept. 1, I know it is not  good news. 
 

R.I.P. to all the victims

And of course this was Tucker Carlson’s response. Burn in hell!

Because unfortunately the money they get from the NRA is closer to their eyes than the children they're killing.

Look when will America learn  ??

As long as Republicans are in power, never. We have to vote them all out.

[mdvdyk 353]

Americans have been promoting the American dream to the world for decades. Maybe when I was little and watched Hollywood movies, I believed it. Now I see a sh*tty country, comparable to the third world. You have nothing to be proud of in this sh*tty country.

[mdvdyk 353]

The only excuse you Democrats make is to blame the Republicans, who represent almost 50% of the country. It's all of you, in general, you live in a horrible country, and it's time to accept it. You are neither a world power, nor the country of freedom.

Republicans represent about 27% of the population, not 50%. Don't be fooled by their overrepresentation in our state and federal governments. It's the politicians they vote for that constantly kill any kind of gun control legislation despite the fact that between 70% and 80% of Americans (depending on the poll) support more restrictions and more thorough background checks.

So yes, they are primarily at fault here for the fact that this keeps happening.

What a messed up sh!t  . Imagine sending your kids to school only to be shot dead there. This is horrific and I hope that the families can grief and get through these hard times.

But I also hope that talks about gun regulation in the US finally gets some grip. As a European this is surreal to watch that mass shootings are basically normalcy there.
