Some of those children were decapitated

As per Uvalde MD. Let that sink in. I can’t get that out of my mind. I know the damage an AR 15 does, but the thought of a child being decapitated is just too much.
Right to lifers that support people having weapons of war should be reminded of that every time. All the politicians should be asked why someone carrying around war machines is more important than children being decapitated. If they are going to defend their rights, they need to defend the ugliness of their rights.

Americans seem to be sleep walking these days.
No one home.

That was the turning point in bringing our troops home.
Seeing actual carnage can change minds especially with children.
Of course, would need families ok first.

I agree, if people could see the actual damage done to children it might change their minds about guns.

I keep hoping some brave parent will do the right thing and release photos.

They have become numb and docile at the hands of the Putin GOP propaganda for decades now.
