On MSNBC now.

More than one mass shooting every day plus all the simple every day shootings that outnumber them and what? Thoughts and prayers?

How about gun reform? OH NOES! can't touch the GUNZ! God given right! Second amendment!

When are going to tell the gunners to just go fuck themselves and PASS SOME GUN SAFETY REFORM?

3. That's where I grew up.

My late father lived there and shopped there until we moved him in to my brothers house, then my house in 2020.

I sent a text message to my brother saying, “it’s a sad day when you’re glad your dad’s not around to hear of this particular shooting.”

4. For sure!

during the dump years, every day I was glad my dad is dead so he would not have to see what our country had devolved into. (He made the transition 8+ years ago and was a stunch Democrat who fiercely loved our country.)

5. The suspect has been apprehended. n/t

6. and there lies the conundrum.

What are effective gun safety reforms that 1) will pass and 2) will be constitutional 3) will be effective?
