(4,798 posts)I've not been able to stand her, especially her stance on guns. If she could only apply this same righteousness to the gun problem. In this case, shes clearly correct to take a stance against the victimization of children, yet she has to know that the statistics are clear that firearms are now the leading cause of death among children ages 1 to 17 in the U.S. All I can figure is that she, or someone close to her, has been a victim of sexual abuse, since the MEpublicans are only outraged when something affects them personally. Sorry, I may be jaded beyond repair at this point.

I think this is good. The Democrats won't change any MAGA minds, but it's possible MTG and these victims will.

Kick in to the DU tip jar?
This week we're running a special pop-up mini fund drive. From Monday through Friday we're going ad-free for all registered members, and we're asking you to kick in to the DU tip jar to support the site and keep us financially healthy.
As a bonus, making a contribution will allow you to leave kudos for another DU member, and at the end of the week we'll recognize the DUers who you think make this community great.
