LOOK, LOOK, LOOK at the gun violence in a Blue State.

Forget the fact it's a fucking AMERICAN PROBLEM, and the state it happened in, means Shit. Other civilized countries don't have near the gun deaths per capita as America, which makes it a nationwide problem, and even Blue states aren't immune.

If I were in charge, I'd be confiscating guns.

I am so sick of this. And I have not been personally affected, meaning I don't happen to know anyone killed by a gun. Lucky me, I'm sure. Perhaps if I had, I'd be far more enraged than I already am.
