Deadly shooting at Dallas ICE facility investigated by FBI as targeted attack; gunman dead, officials say. (CBS News)
Another day of “Thoughts and Prayers,” except not quite so. “Thoughts and Prayers” are usually offered by Republicans to anyone who is not directly a Republican, not directly a MAGA, and not directly a pal or buddy of Trump. On the rare occasion that innocents are murdered who happen to be Republican advocates, Conservative talking heads, MAGA minions, the first thing out of the mouths of said Republicans is vengeance, we will get you, and of course, Antifa did it.
So when it’s ICE or Charlie Kirk, it is a targeted attack; when it happens to be kids sitting in classrooms, parishioners sitting in a church, a mosque, or synagogue, people at a concert, or patrons at a Gay bar, the response from Republicans is usually “It’s too soon to talk about it now.”
No one in this nation should be murdered by an assault weapon, a gun, a rifle; all life should be cherished and considered equal, but with the Republicans, it becomes selective indignation. We were reminded by the Republicans that upon Charlie Kirk’s death, he left a widow and children. We are told today by Krist Noam that the ICE agents now have families without a father or a mother. When have we ever been reminded by the majority of Republicans about the dead children and their grieving parents and siblings? When are we reminded by the Republicans of the children now missing their fathers or mothers?
Somehow, it seems that when it is a person with ties to the Republican Party who is murdered, that particular death becomes more important, more relevant. Republican selective indignation, once again!
