What sort of people think frequent mass shootings aren't a problem worthy of congressional action? There've been 250 (give or take) so far this year for our poor country, carried out, for the most part, by young white males. Not Mexicans, not Muslims, but young white American citizens, radicalized or emboldened by the climate of hate and fear this sorry administration has ginned up to in hopes of holding on to its base. What sort of people think it's important that anyone, including mentally ill persons, be able to purchase weapons and ammunition capable of mass destruction--more important than all the innocent lives lost in these killing sprees? What sort of people need an assault type weapon? What sort of people think the answer to the problem is thoughts and prayers/mandated prayer in school/bulletproof kid's backpacks, shooter drills, and safe corners in every school? What sort of people can support a president and Congresspersons so beholden to the NRA that they can ignore the corpses piling up? I weep for our country that it contains so many of that sort of people.
