I claim no credit for the idea behind this pic -- it was inspired by lostnfound's post here. Full credit goes to them.

1. Missed first rec...

By “l l” this much.

[Frustratedlady]

2. I haven't seen much posted about Republican responses to July 4th. Are they anywhere to be found?

Surely, they aren't hiding until things cool down.

[Hugin]

4. They are still waiting for the NRA approved talking points.

These things take time with focus groups and whatnot.

They have learned to McConnell into their shells until some whatabout, butter males, or tan suit can be identified.

[crickets]

8. Well, there was a campaign ad.

https://www.vice.com/en/article/v7vmwd/illinois-darren-bailey-highland-park-

Hours after a gunman opened fire during an Independence Day parade in a Chicago suburb, Illinois state Sen. Darren Bailey, a Republican, called for people to “move on and… celebrate.”

[Frustratedlady]

12. I saw that and the first thing I looked for was party or Trump affiliation. Sure enuf!

We may not be hearing from the RW because this was an affluent community and possibly many Republican voters.

If so, it will be interesting to see if they flip to blue in November.

3. From now on, everybody just stay home

THIS is why we can't have nice things any more.
But they'll be damned if they give up their gunz.

[Bucky]

10. ...and enjoy your "freedom"

[wnylib]

18. Looks like that is the goal of

the Sedition Party and the 6 bloody-handed justices.

Keep us perpetually fearful and anxious, especially too afraid to assemble in protests.

We will need protective vests, helmets, leg guards, and bullet proof boots. Before long, we will be wearing Medieval knights' armor just to step outside.

5. Blame Hollywood and video games!

[peppertree]

17. And, of course, Brandon

If their firecrackers didn't go off last night, they'd blame him for that too.

[milestogo]

6. MORE GUNS.

MORE GUNS.

[keithbvadu2]

23. Obviously! MORE guns!

[IronLionZion]

7. Lock the doors for the parade? Arm the parade goers? More good guys with guns?

Thoughts and prayers, mental health, etc. And more guns. Always more guns.

[ramapo]

9. Ignore it

Wasn’t even page one news. Ho hum… another mass shooting with an assault rifle

[Bucky]

11. This is an unfair picture

You're totally ignoring the thoughts and prayers GOP leaders are sending,
...via Twitter, of course

[AndyS]

13. The military solution is a

forward guard, a rear guard and air support for convoys (parades). Lead vehicle has a SAW (Squad Automatic Weapon aka machine gun) and the last vehicle has one as well. Helicopters overhead to provide suppressing fire if needed.

Yeah! that's the ticket! more guns!!

When do I get a SAW for my trip to the veternarian?

[Justice matters.]

25. And drones equiped with CCTV cameras flying overhead all the way through!

All connected to the SAW you (and I) requested.

[rubbersole]

14. Arm the Drum Major

and instead of batons....

[KS Toronado]

15. I'd like to know when Walmart will start their Active Shooter Drills

along with McDonalds, hardware stores, 7-11s, auto parts stores, grocery stores, libraries, tire stores, hospitals,
pizza joints, used car lots, candy stores, jewelry stores, Chinese restaurants, gas stations, tow truck companies,
you get the idea.

Do gun manufacturers and gun stores have active shooter drills?

[samsingh]

16. republican so more treachery, more lies, more evil, more stupidity.

republicans left unchecked will destroy whatever they can.

[Fla Dem]

19. If all those kids in carriages had guns, the monster wouldn't have had a chance.

Right Ted and Mitch?

[Yo_Mama_Been_Loggin]

20. The 2nd amendment demands a human sacrifice now and then.

Isn't that what you're saying Cancun Cruz and Moscow Mitch?

[LetMyPeopleVote]

21. K&R

[burrowowl]

22. K&R!

[Midnight Writer]

24. Senator John Thune say Americans need to learn how to make themselves little.

Avoid big events and crowds.

[Justice matters.]

26. Better: All American drivers and pedestrians order and purchase a military TANK ...

Problem solved!

[Rhiannon12866]

28. Right! Seatbelts aren't nearly enough!

To stay safe, we need to make all new vehicles bulletproof and all clothing - in all sizes from newborn to XXXL - equipped with body armor! Forget about the Assault Weapons Ban, way too complicated!

[Justice matters.]

29. Imagine the "bizne$$$$$$$$$$$$$$"

jobs creatorz alright

[DBoon]

27. stay inside and watch Fox News

Be terrified knowing the Second Amendment stands
