Our oldest grandchild, our precious little granddaughter was subjected to enduring her first lockdown yesterday. The more things change the more they aren't the same. Stop the guns now! It ain't right.

Apparently, God only confirms biases, prejudices, and inclinations, and never offers ideas someone would never come up with on their own.

With more mass shootings and the premature end of covid precautions, my decision to not go out in public except when absolutely necessary is looking better and better.

So when is the US going to actually stop allowing anyone to carry a gun around and shoot anyone they want? This is lunacy and no other civilized country does this. This Canadian won’t be visiting America for any holidays again.

Between this sick obsession with guns, the attacks on women’s rights, the disgusting racism and homophobia rampant in the red states, and the fact anyone at all would support Trump or DeSantis, it’s a no go. #ItsTheGunsStupid

▶️ #ItsTheGunsStupid | #AndrewSanford @ #Pajiba intros #JordanKlepper's piece on the #Tulsa Gun Show (at 11 acres, the world's largest) and America's relatively recent obsession with tactical weapons such as the AR-15. Americans buying #guns as offensive weapons is down to marketing by manufacturers [plus #2A absolutism by the #NRA and look-the-other-wayism by right-wing Republicans].

While reading an article about Biden's visit to Northern Ireland, I was struck by a mention of 3,500 people who died over three decades in 'the troubles'.

Pft! Amateurs...

In America in 2022, more than 20,000 people were killed by guns, in what's often referred to as one of 'our god-given rights.'

@JDS Here's your friendly weekly reminder that here in the UK we banned guns and we don't have a #massshootingoftheday. Look, America, this isn't actually hard.

Is this the shooter? Hearing it is...?????? And maybe there would have been a confrontation; an argument...at worst a fist fight...if it wasn't for the GD GUNS

Newest #Republican talking point: Prevent the mentaly Ill from buying guns to prevent mass shootings

Also #Republican talking point:
You can't prevent a criminal from buying guns so why even try

@ChattJazz

If there is one positive in this particular shooting, it's the realization that the problem cannot be avoided by sending your kids to private or parochial school; there is literally no safe place for our children, no matter how privileged they may be.

Will this create the pressure necessary to regulate guns?

#ItsTheGunsStupid

Reposting this graph from Financial Times showing mass shootings in the US virtually exploded after 2004 when the GOP declined to renew the assault weapons ban.

This inhumane #Republican is at the center of #USCultureWars. She is ignorant, incompetent and unqualified for public servitude.

And this from @ShannonWatts yesterday...another mass shooting I did not see reported.....#ItsTheGunsStupid

America's gun culture is OUT of CONTROL. And let's talk of the amount of gun violence being perpetrated by ex-military. MASS SHOOTING: A military veteran shot and killed three children - ages 5, 6 and 11 - and an active-duty soldier in a mass shooting in South Carolina. The man and his ex-wife had recently divorced.
