On Deaf Ears

 It was May 25, 2020, and America had just entered its worst stretch of gun violence in at least two decades. By year’s end, bullets would kill more than 43,000 people, including hundreds of kids. Children have paid an especially brutal price in the nation’s capital, where 95 of them were shot — nine fatally — last year. But even in cities and states with the toughest firearm laws, America has long struggled to hold gun owners accountable when they leave a weapon somewhere a child can find it, a reality that would prove true for the man whose negligence left My’onna bleeding last summer after she was shot accidentally by her best friend.

And on deaf ears, this latest story will fall. On the same ears of those who insist that their children DO NOT NEED MASKS, that they as Parents of those kids also DO NOT NEED MASKS or VACCINATIONS, that somehow saving a FETUS inside the womb is a lesson from their God, but once that Fetus becomes an Infant, breathing oxygen outside the womb, who the fuck cares! You know, because if you gave birth YOU HAVE TO pay the bills, for food, shelter, health, and welfare, NO MATTER WHAT.

 

And the lesson of NO CONTROLS regarding Gun Ownership will be IGNORED by anyone Republican because the Second Amendment is MUCH MORE A PRIORITY for them to be re-elected. So a kid dies, or kids die, or 100’s of kids die or 1000’s of kids die…a GOP Politicians desire to be KING or QUEEN is much too important to let CHILDREN’S LIVES be saved. I am certain THOUGHTS AND PRAYERS WERE OFFERED, ya know pretending to care is a Republican Trait!
