Dear America, This is exactly what you voted for

We've been through Columbine, Sandy Hook, Charleston, San Bernardino, Orlando and now Las Vegas. But you still keep electing the same idiots who let the NRA walk over the graves of our loved ones time and time again. Well, I have no more outrage left in my heart, no more tears to shed. This is the wind you've sewn, now you shall reap the whirlwind.
