No matter how Republicans strew the words, it remains a mass shooting regardless of how many people killed.

Time for that Emmet Till moment when Americans can see for themselves what shootings look like and what it does to the human body, especially that of a child. Some will be repulsed, some will get off on it. Perhaps more will finally say, "ENOUGH" and demand their Senator or Congressperson DO SOMETHING!

They could have bought bullet proof vests. 60 bucks on Amazon.
SARCASM!!!
We are a failed society when we can't stop daily mass shootings.
I wonder if schools would allow a child to enter with a vest on?

Per Section 931 of title 18, United States Code, any US citizen who is 18 or older and has not been convicted of a felony that constitutes a crime of violence can purchase and wear body armor in the USA.

Think about that a minute!!!!

A Republican congressman representing Allen, Texas — where a mass shooting killed at least eight people on Saturday — said people who don't believe in the power of prayer following a violent incident aren't believers of an "almighty god" after he was asked what his response would be to people who feel prayers are not the solution to mass shootings.
