@th3j35t3r

I still get sick to my stomach when I think of 1st 100-200 or so police who responded to Uvalde

When I was a Firefighter, we trained to go in on mass shootings loaded with medical gear in 4 man teams with 2 officers & two firefighters. So we could start treating the wounded ASAP

I trained to GO IN UNARMED AND without vests! WHILE they are still shooting

There is a FAR worse & more accurate word than "pussies" for them

"Cowards" comes to mind

So does "Dishonorable"

@aasteppin RIP Donald Sutherland. A legend of an actor.

@process @stueytheround @LiberalLibrarian Exactly this. Sudden surprises happen, and if we don't get off our butts, we deserve them.

@JV3MJD She does! And she also has a very dangerous exercise technique! Any gym tutor would tell her so. One day she will do herself a real injury.

@process @stueytheround @LiberalLibrarian It's just all been so very quiet. I expected more "noise" as people fight for the right party, but it does seem as though the country is resigned to Sunak or Starmer. All we can do up here is tactical vote. Voting Labour in my constituency might get a dozen votes lol. No hit at all. I had a rummage through the leaflets again yesterday, to see how they all stood. It's weird. And way too quiet.

@process @stueytheround @LiberalLibrarian All we've had is leaflets shoved through the door. Seen very little on TV or heard little on the radio. It's really been left to us to figure who to vote for.

@process He's rare alright! I wish he were "rare" in the sense of never being seen again!

@dauphin87 You can probably tell why I call my dad, "Atticus". πŸ˜€

@dauphin87 I've always preferred a mutt myself. Much better natured and easier to train.

@dauphin87 John, the behaviour of many "white" people leaves me dumbfounded. My father used to say that if you saw past the skin of everyone on the planet, we'd all look the same. I don't get the hatred. I really don't. It simply does not compute. Blacks, whites, and every shade in between can be bad, or can choose to be awesome. I'd rather believe most choose to be awesome.
