    Children get slaughtered en masse in their classrooms: 😴

    A drag queen reads a children’s book to children: 😡

      The state of everything is so fucked for my brain to even go this direction… But your comment made me think the following:

      Well, in their (the conservative’s) heads, yes. A dead kid isn’t one that will grow up and eventually vote against them and their hateful ideologies after being around the same things that conservatives demonize.

      Edit: Not implying that conservatives want children dead. (That is clearly not the case given their stance on contraception and women’s reproductive rights.) But, that they don’t care about kids dying to gun’s, because “MUh 2nD amendmEnT RigHTS shAn’t be INFRIngeD uPoN”, and that they view children that have attended these drag events as having been indoctrinated and mentally harmed/abused. That scares them more.

        Comedian Geoffrey Asmus said something like, “I don’t understand why Republicans are anti-abortion. Isn’t abortion just dead liberals?”

    Notice how Vance and the other right-wing pricks don’t apply the same reasoning to abortion. Nope, in THAT case they can come up with law after law after law to address the issue. When it comes to the lives of children already here? Pfffttt… perish the thought and the child.

    Conservatism is a deadly cancer that needs to be eradicated to save humanity. There is no place in a modern culture for toxic, hate-based ideologies like conservatism. That’s just a fact of life.

    Yeah, in the United States. Not in other western countries. Wonder why, JD? Maybe because it’s a “fact of life” that’s created and sustained by people like you…

    “Fact of life”, Shay Dee Vance is a mentally underdeveloped humanoid. Another, “fact of life” - there is a lot of profit and money to grease politician’s hands in those look-alike military gun sales for LARPERS.

    Yeah they are now. but they shouldn’t be don’t have to be. These conservative lunatics don’t understand the concept of compromise whatsoever.

    Trump gets shot at and the country says there is no room for political violence, we wish him well. Children get shot every single day, that’s just a matter of life, child-sized coffin sales sky-rocket.

    But really, why aren’t more politicians being shot? I think if they were the targets instead of innocent children, gun reform would be both swift and severe.

    Now, I’m not saying that political violence is acceptable, but I’m certainly not not saying it.

      Becauss the people who go out and try to solve their problems with violence on a scale that would give us that pattern are the republican base. There are plenty of examples outside of that group, obviously, but even the guy who tried to shoot Trump had been a republican until very shortly before the attempt.
