We said thoughts and prayers, isn't that their custom for victims of gun violence?

Are we supposed to be emulating them? Isn't that just stooping to their level? Why not be the better man?

Somone wise once said, fool me once shame on you foot me twice... Can't get fooled again!

Republicans have been pushing hate and fear for DECADES. They have laughed at tragedies and drawn crosshairs on their political opponents.

So yea, we don't need to be better men.

I don't condone violence, but I also have zero sympathy for someone who's done nothing except stoke fear and violence at every turn.
