The best solution to mass shootings is mandatory full body armor in public as well as in your home around family/friends. The only time you can take it off is when locked alone in your secure safe room. Any maybe some sort of loophole regarding alone in secure locked bathrooms so you can take it off to shower. Maybe.

I was called “oven” by my friends after my kids were born, because that was the extent of my contribution. I feel ya.

Reese and her daughter look gorgeous and make me jealous that none of my kids resemble me in the slightest.

It’s the first use a lethal drone on US soil and everyone’s just like ‘not a big deal. he deserved it.’
