What a bunch of simpletons

These white men in Allen thanking police for quick response to a shooting where 9 people are dead. They werent there fucking quick enough, were they?

And more prayers prayers and prayers.

There is nothing more that could be done, it seems.

Stupid asses. I have been so fucking sick of these responses.

They think we are as ignorant as they are and believe that something great was done during this and be thankful it wasn’t more people shot dead. The police are great!!!!!!!

What about the fucking guns you god damned stupid ignorant cruel assholes!

I mean they need to know how many people want guns regulated! Weapons of war have no place in our society except to kill. BAN THEM!!

Remember when Gov Abbott used the same type of words soon after Uvalde? Then later we see video of law enforcement standing around doing nothing

Oh and a caption on the video said

‘The sound of children screaming has been removed.”

They should be ashamed of themselves. And if I hear the word "prayer" one more time from these buffoons I may throw something at the tv.

I was screaming at the tube. Fuck your broken hearts and sads and offering to wrap your arms arms around them. How ya gonna hug shedded little children bodies assholes. All about faith and Jesus shit. So sick of that. Fuck Abbott. He would have pardoned the shooter if he lived. Maybe Boebert can come to the church tomorrow with her big sign with a picture of an AR titled, cordless hole puncher, grinning like a possum eatin shit. And Texas politicians that show up like Cruz, be damn sure you wear your AR lapel pin.

What kind of a monster of a deity allows or causes these slaughters?! I’m glad their evil sky wizard doesn’t actually exist.

Their all-powerful doG created the universe and everything that entails, knows what each and every last one of us thinks, and yet he (or whatever the personal pronoun used) can't stop violence, even when it occurs against the innocent and the very young. What a crock of crap.
