*live, not love, but it honestly works either way

Nah, you’re good. It’s honestly something I struggle with and feel a little guilty about whenever other shootings happen with more “sympathetic” victims. A part of me gets angry that my friends will never be cited as, like, the moment things SHOULD HAVE changed, if this country just had a goddamn conscience, not like

I know. Both gay, one Latino and one dating a Latino man (different man, who ALSO died there, who I only met once, but who was also lovely, I just feel weird calling him a friend after only meeting him once), I know so many people in this country think we’re better off without them. And I’ve been angry so long about

I believe that studies/polls show that an overwhelming majority of US citizens are in FAVOR of basic common sense gun control. Additionally, the NRA has been mired in scandal and seems to be weaker/more vulnerable than they used to be. Perhaps now is the time for some of these NRA whores in Congress to back away from

I used to think that until politicians started getting gunned down ... they would do nothing. Now it’s “rich old white dudes”.

Worse.

The NRA is a terrorist organization.

Remember Rick Santorum’s solution to mass shootings?

So did I. When nothing changed in the election after Sandy Hook, I knew Americans weren’t gonna do shit.

This is one of the deadliest school shootings America has seen since the shooting at Sandy Hook Elementary in 2012"

It makes no sense that the Republican Party is able to sell itself as the family values, protect the children party when they continue to enable these tragedies. Most people agree with gun control. How do we keep ending up with leaders who think women should be controlled and forced to give up their lives for fetuses,

This country has an appetite for self-destruction. Be it climate change, sensible gun legislation, abortion access, funding for childhood programs, or a social safety net, we just do not care. It’s weaved into our very culture of hyper-individualism and reverence for violence as a means of resolving problems. It’s

I couldn’t even if I wanted to. My head is so full of mass shootings I feel some obligation to remember, as if it means anything to the people who died.

Don’t forget the 60 mowed down in Vegas.

When Sandy Hook happened I thought we might finally do something meaningful about gun control in this country.

When Sandy Hook happened I thought we might finally do something meaningful about gun control in this country. Because it was preventable just like this tragedy was preventable and the next one will be, too. But no. Republicans would rather sacrifice children to the cult of the NRA and the Second Amendment than even

I fucking can’t with this. Sandy Hook couldn’t change anything. My friends being murdered in Pulse couldn’t change anything. I really don’t think anything can change this or stop this, at least not anything American politicians would consider and the American public would allow. And so all of these people and goddamn

Watch them call for arming teachers like a good guy with a gun wasn’t just murdered in Buffalo.

When you put up a democrat who supports republican policy, why would anyone vote for that person when they can just vote for the republican?

Your user name tracks I guess.
