I just can't watch or read anything about the latest mass shooting

Now this one was in SoCal but not like the one in Colorado Springs or the one
in Roseburg, OR or the one in the movie theater in Louisiana where the guy
couldn't buy his guns and ammo in Georgia so he bought his gear in Alabama
or the one in Washington State or the one in the church in Charleston, S.C. or
the 4 people shot about 2 miles from where I am sitting right now in Columbus,
OH or that one on the military base in the D.C. metro area or ...

I just can not handle the news of yet one more mass shooting right now maybe in
the morning I'll read about the details but now I feel like Michael Moore who a few years
ago said he was done talking about mass shootings in America because we will
always have another mass shooting and we will not do shit to stop it from happening.


BTW FUCK THE NRA AND THOSE GOD DAMN GUN HUMPERS and I have owned guns
and hunted for years too.

a very dear friend has for many years taken her developmentally disabled older sister out to that place for all manner of services.

I am so very relieved that they were not out there when this happened.

The cartoon not the movie. It's on my TV anyway. I highly recommend it as an antidote to the news.

I had the unfortunate task of confronting a few of them on this forum over the past 24 hours and they are such a nasty bunch.

Its all about their guns and fuck everybody else.
