 BANG BANG, HERE WE GO AGAIN!!!

Yesterday my office partner informed me there was another mass shooting in America. He told  me that  children as young as 9 were killed. I thought back 60 years to when I was 9. My biggest worry was whether I would get Mickey Mantle’s card in a baseball card pack at Frank Forlenza’s store on the corner of Union and Dewitt in the Junction section of Pittston. After that I acknowledged the news, felt pretty much nothing and then went back to my work.

Three children and three adults were killed in a shooting at the Covenant School, a private Christian school, in Nashville on Monday, according to police. Law enforcement also killed the suspect after confronting them inside the school, officers said.

The child victims were three 9-year-olds — Evelyn Dieckhaus, Hallie Scruggs, and William Kinney, who were students at the school. The three adult victims were staff members: Cynthia Peak, 61, a substitute teacher; Katherine Koonce, 60, the head of the school; and Mike Hill, 61, a custodian.

A little later on after it sunk in there was outrage and then acceptance that nothing would ever be done.

We now have accepted this as normal. Its part of the chances we take by living in a country filled with people who have a need to show off their guns. We live in a selfish society where your right to own an AR style gun that mutilates children’s bodies are more important than the lives of children.

We also live in a world where political party that used to stand for law and order now calls an armed insurrection a visit. We have spineless republicans who offer ‘thoughts and prayers” but do shit about any serious banning of AR 15s.

Remember it was the Democrats under Clinton who passed the ban on assault rifles. It was the GOP who didn’t renew it.We never had this many shootings when morons couldn't buy assault weapons.

The President can’t do much because he has a bunch of cowards in the GOP who won’t move. This is the party of pro life! PROTECT  THE  FETUS. IT’S A LIFE! You Democrats are baby killers!

Well we’re not but most certainly the Republicans and their ilk who genuflect on the altar of the fetus, protect it by invading people’s bedroom and by the way interfering in one of the most dangerous of undertakings for females, giving birth are actually child killers. By blocking any type of meaningful reform, the Republicans simply kill children and will continue to let it happen. 

Having a child is not a spiritual experience, IT'S A MEDICAL PROCEDURE.  Pro lifers love their guns though.

Bang bang, thoughts and prayers, excuses about mental health ad then bang bang and bang bang again. It’s the Republican way that the rest of America has to pay for. Hey it's only a life here and there, right? 

WRONG!
