If you're someone who possesses #guns and #ammunition, you had better be damn sure you didn't accidentally leave a handful of #bullets in your #luggage before heading out to another country. Part of being a responsible #gunOwner is keeping tabs on your #ammo, and researching the applicable laws of the country you're visiting. What's no big deal back home in #Oklahoma can get you a decade or more in a foreign prison.
Republicans in Tennessee are out of their fucking minds. What kind of insanity is this?
The solution to school shootings isn’t to arm teachers!
America is a shit show beyond all logic. The unfathomable has become reality here. Nationalists like to say “these colors never run.” But they do. The color red plentifully runs through our streets.
Ohio purchases ‘shoot houses’ to use for armed teacher training~will operate “shoot houses” so school staff armed with guns can practice facing an active shooter. #Ohio#schools#guns#Shooting#SchoolShooting#education
John Pavlovitz rightly compares the (selective) outrage many Republicans are now expressing at Kristi Noem's braggadocious story about shooting a dog and a goat with the meh, thoughts-and-prayers response of these same folks to yet another school shooting.
"The cognitive dissonance required to rightly rail against the assassination of a puppy, while simultaneously ignoring or explaining away the nearly daily mass shootings of mothers, spouses, brothers, children, and best friends here is a sick marvel to behold."
"I believe that to minimize mass shootings, we must move the question of the gender of the shooter from the periphery to the center of a long overdue national conversation."
"Change how we talk about the issue. That means refusing to speak out against generic 'gun violence.' Until we’re willing to say, men’s gun violence, we’ll continue to miss the mark, falling short of any campaign to prevent mass shootings."
