1. I'm guessing

it all would depend on which Senator they killed.....

[kentuck]

2. I get your point.

You are probably correct.

[Luciferous]

3. That probably wouldn't change anything either.

[MyOwnPeace]

6. It would depend on

the RepubliCon's "selective indignation" - for example:

DEFECIT SPENDING: RepubliCons - good; Democrats - bad
MAIL-IN VOTING: Democrats - good; RepubliCons - bad
IMPEACHMENT: Democrats - good; RepubliCons - bad

4. The answer seems to be yes.

I thought Blue Lives Mattered.


BTW... I live in the Lower Hudson Valley of NYS, which the NYT once tagged as "Upper Coplandia" because it is the bedroom community for cops and firefighters from the city. There were scads of Blue Lives Matter flags here before the riot. All gone now. Not one on display when I tooled around for a look-see this past weekend.

5. It has to be a Republican Senator.

[dem4decades]

7. So you think they would become brave at that point? They are cowards.

[MyOwnPeace]

8. Is that your answer

to what would get some action - or a wish?

[kentuck]

9. Nobody wants to see anybody shot...

...but we have to wonder what would shake them back to reality?

[MyOwnPeace]

12. Apparently

thousands of people storming the Capitol, destroying property and injuring and killing people isn't enough to do that "shaking........."

14. Even after

That horrendous school shooting in Newtown Connecticut, gun reform has been paltry.

I’ve no clue what it takes anymore.

10. Did not seem to affect Steve Scalise

[FM123]

11. Even something extreme like that might not make a difference.

Even when it was one of their own repub senators (Steve Scalise) that was shot on the baseball diamond, they just went back to business as usual - it was not any kind of a wake up call about gun violence or anything....

[MyOwnPeace]

13. If Sandy Hook wasn't "enough"

I don't know that anything will make a difference.....

[FM123]

15. Sadly, you are right.

[Karma13612]

16. Agree. 😢
