I dunno. If only people had voted in a change of leadership after a failure of leadership or something.
Uvaldes is majority conservative according to Google, so that wouldn’t have happened. I expect nothing less of Texas
That’s what makes me saddest. Their community was wounded directly and that wasn’t enough to cause change. There’s no hope for them.
That's what you get when you turn your politics into a sports match.
Yeah, unfortunately they got the government they voted for, and decided that nothing was good enough.
"We have tried nothing, and it's not working!"
Are you actually doing a "Look at the bright side of a child massacre the police did jack shit about"??? Wtf is wrong with you people why are your brains so broken
I'm sure this is a bit, but it's a bad bit that doesn't make much sense.
Nah I don't think it's a bit. They said they want to vote for RFK Jr in another thread and that's equally stupid behavior
Oh, so mental illness.
Forgive them father, for they know not what they do.
But they also vote, father, please make them stop.
That benefits arise from events which seem, at first glance, horrific doesn't make sense to you?
"Are you actually doing a “Look at the bright side of a child massacre the police did jack shit about”???"
Benefits emerge from even the most dreadful events, just as success yields it's share of drawbacks. Incidents of mass child murder are hardly exempt from this principle
Jesus fucking christ buddy you are a horrible person
Save yourself some typing; just say conservative.
Salvador Ramos was a true Progressive, unlike celebrity posers in the mold of Greta Thunberg. Most yap about the dangers of overpopulation, yet do very little to rectify this malady. Ramos went out and decreased the number of humans on this planet, rather standing in front of the cameras, yapping about how much he cares
Is it not more horrible for those who've experienced an event they find unpleasant to stay locked in a cycle of telling themselves "This is horrible... I can't bear it!!!"? Nothing but further misery can come from that
I can only speak for myself, but the internet.
Emotions have cooled as much as they ever will, or should. Do you think parents will forget about children who died while the cops stood around and prevented the parents from going in to save them? They never will.
And parents whose kids survived, you're wrong about them. They'll never think "Thank god it was my neighbor's kid who died, not mine." That's not how decent humans think.
I never asserted that they would "forget", just that they'd come to appreciated the potential perks which came out of these events, rather than viewing them in a one-dimensional fashion
"And parents whose kids survived, you’re wrong about them. They’ll never think “Thank god it was my neighbor’s kid who died, not mine.”
You're engaging a great deal of mind reading/jumping to conclusions there
If you write in ways that suggest that people should look on the bright side after a mass shooting, I think the conclusions are merited.
You really believe it's healthy for folks to exacerbate and prolong their misery, by NOT developing alternate ways of viewing an event they find unpleasant?
Your entire comment history is utter trash.
You don't deserve the air you're breathing.
Fault a guy for trying to make his fellow humans feel better
