      Every time there’s a mass shooting, Republicans say, “guns aren’t the problem, mental health is” and then they want to do absolutely nothing about it.

      The only conclusion you can make is that they like mentally ill people who torture and murder.

        I think that’s only been a recent thing they’ve mentioned; mostly they seem to come out with the ‘moar guns’ line, or the good guys with guns statement, but that’s coming from an outsider so it may well be different from your actual experience.

        Exactly. Then they’ll take that and turn it into fear. Then they’ll take that fear and blame the Democrats for it. Then their base with their room temperature IQ will eat that shit up and show up on voting day and vote for hatred and projection while being completely oblivious to the fact it’s their party’s fault nothing is being done about it.
