I cringe every time a news reporter asks a person who just went through a shooting, "What was going through your mind as you found yourself...?"
In this difficult situation?
In the middle of a horrible mass shooting?
In this deplorable hellscape?
In this agonizingly devastating, too many times repeated, yet grossly ignored fuckery?
Call me crazy, but I think "We hold these truths to be self-evident, that all men are created equal, that they are endowed by their Creator with certain unalienable Rights, that among these are Life, Liberty and the pursuit of Happiness." should supersede "A well regulated Militia, being necessary to the security of a free State, the right of the people to keep and bear Arms, shall not be infringed."
@ChippySuave funny how the 2A folks insist on skipping over that "well regulated" part. that pretty much says, right there, that the government has the right & responsibility to regulate guns & training
Come on!!! We all know what the person was thinking! "Holy hell, I hope I get out of this alive!"
Followed by, "Fuck! I may never see my loved ones again."
And then, "Why the fuck is this happening?"
Why? Why is it happening? Why do we continue to allow this to happen?
