#Masshooting
So we just haven't prayed hard enough to get God interested in preventing a mass shooting?
This misuse of religious language to avoid looking honestly at what's at the root of these mass shootings, which are more or less unique to the US, is obscene.
What's at the root: too many damned guns. Assault rifles designed for military use casually available to civilians. Republican blocking of any attempt to solve the problem. The NRA's death hold on the nation.
According to Texas representative Keith Self, whose district includes Allen, where a mass shooting just took place, people who say thoughts and prayers aren't enough when another mass shooting takes place just don't believe in God and that God controls everything.
So many questions: If God is "absolutely in control" of everything as Rep. Self maintains, then God is somehow ultimately responsible when a mass shooting occurs.

45,000+ Americans die from guns each year, less than 400 of those are assault style weapons. I do support banning assault style weapons, but we need to get rid of about 99% of the other guns while we are at it. i am more worried about the 45,000+ who died from all types of guns In 2020, the most recent year for which complete data is available, 45,222 people died from gun-related injuries in the U.S., according to the CDC. #school #guns #masshooting

When ever there is a gun caused mass death event, only New Zealand has responded to it appropriately.
All other nations seem to stop at lame discussion of banning some sorts of guns, but then it all goes quiet until another slaughter event.
What is it with the pro gun nuts?
I await until some of them are in the wrong place themselves when a demented flake with an automatic battlefield rifle goes wild.
Is that what it will take?
