No biggie...3 teens and young woman murdered (shot) in car

in back country of Tennessee. These stories are becoming such the norm these days...Perhaps the answer is a gun box similar to a call box situated on all roads of the country.. Just break the glass!!

Its just sickening how accessible guns are to felons in this country..or just how accessible they are period!
Just fucking insane..

Guns are more important than education, health care, children -- the recalls in my state made it very clear where some folks priorities are and it's frightening.

Except it was in Tennessee.

Oh -- and nobody's supposed to care about it.

That's perfectly normal and acceptable. It's the price our society pays to be free.

So if that stat doubles, then it means we're twice as free and the newer better robust Second Amendment makes up for all those other Constitutional Rights we have yielded back to our government to keep us safe.

The other three persons in the car died. Luckily, he survived with a bullet in his shoulder which required surgery and lots and lots of rehab...
