the people who can make change don't care. pubs don't want to INFRINGE, and dems like having something to make the pubs look bad.  neither side has a reason to fix anything.

i disagree. reasonable gun control measures have bipartisan support, something to the tune of 92% of all americans regardless of political affiliation. I firmly believe this is the result of a very powerful gun lobby making sure that the status quo is maintained and that the ultra-minority rules.

the public may be in support, but politicians on either side have no interest or reason to fix anything.  it's a hot topic that gives them something to talk about on 24-hour news channels and nothing more.

I don't mean to chuckle but this is performative. We have sprinted way past "if this isn't the moment," a long long rough ridin' time ago and everyone knows it.

That's what makes the Oxford Strong kid's story so deeply ironic. I chuckled too while shaking my head. This is America.

We all know that the people who need to care about this and take action, won't give a damn. They care more about the nra and culture wars than they do children and cops.

Wow. During the pandemic, I found a lot of solace listening to music from this church's YouTube channel. This is surreal.

Dust off the T's & P's  and add some more dead elementary school kids to the pile. This is a very stupid and selfish country.

Well this is unusual, but only because the shooter was a female. Death toll currently up to 6.

more dead kids, everybody will throw out t's and p's, democrats will blame guns, republicans will blame anything else, democrats will promise tougher gun laws but never do, republicans continue to fight the important battles, like tik tok and drag queens.

rinse repeat

This makes me question the accuracy of those drawings in which god serves as a force field to kids being shot at.

The Nashville school shooter was a woman.  That's pretty surprising.

Yes. As I noted, it's really (and sadly) the only thing unusual about this.

This is the 129th mass shooting in the US this year
From CNN's Elizabeth Joseph

Monday morning's shooting at the Covenant School in Nashville, Tennessee, is the 129th mass shooting in the US so far in 2023, according to data from the Gun Violence Archive.

The Gun Violence Archive, like CNN, defines a mass shooting as one in which at least four people are shot, excluding the shooter.

Three students and three adults were killed at the Covenant School. The shooter, who was identified as a 28-year-old Nashville woman, was also killed in a shootout with police.

Last year, the US hit 100 mass shootings on March 19, per the GVA. The previous year, 2021, saw a late March date as well. From 2018 to 2020, the country didn't reach 100 mass shootings until May.
