Rep. Billy Long (R-MO) blames gun violence on abortion: "Something has happened to our society. I go back to abortion, when we decided it was okay to murder kids in their mothers' wombs. Life has no value to a lot of these folks." (BTW/Rep. Billy Long is running for Senate from the state of Missouri)
In a sane country that actually valued human lives, last week’s mass shooting in Texas—or, the one before that in Buffalo, or thousands before that in the years prior—would have marked the moment the elected officials who’ve refused to pass gun control legislation looked in the mirror and decided to stop being part of the problem.
Unfortunately, the U.S. is not a sane country, and instead of actually doing something to prevent these atrocities from occurring all the time—in case you missed it, there have been 17 mass shootings since Uvalde, Texas—Republicans have launched a competition in which they duke it out to see who can come up with the most ridiculous thing to blame mass shootings on besides guns. So far, that’s included too many doors; not enough God; pot; single moms; unarmed teachers; and schools being designed without “trip wires” and “man traps.” (Vanity Fair)
I write this BLOG, not in an attempt to find hope, for when MEN like this MISSOURI IDIOT fart out TWEETS like this, HIS HOPELESSNESS is unnerving. I write this BLOG, not to try and make sense, for when MEN like this MISSOURI IDIOT, can not understand that GUNS KILL, PEOPLE WHO OWN GUNS, USE THEM TO MURDER how can we even be certain he understands life itself. BUT I do write this BLOG thinking that if ENOUGH Americans read just one more excuse from MEN or WOMEN like this MISSOURI IDIOT, FINALLY ENOUGH Americans will decide that STUPID must STOP!
