This won't happen when the people that sell these guns to shooters have to run a background check...

99% of all gun crimes take place in democrat voting counties.

Shocker.

Another black mass shooting. Strange these never get covered on leftist media outlets.

Should’ve just had strict gun control. Easy fix, right?

Why do these idiots believe they have to be strapped to go to a backyard BBQ where little kids will also be attending?

I hope those frickers get caught , tried, and convicted, then end up getting some prison justice for hurting children.

Is right.

Lord.

We should be marching for those children. They’re even situated on the right side of the womb for the left to march.

These people are criminals and did not buy the guns through legal channels. And won’t be buying them through legal channels after new background check rules in place. But will still be buying them. . . . and shooting kids on the southside and elsewhere these criminals reside.

Which begs the question: Why are these new rules necessary?

I would love to hear from Biden and Liz Cheney as to how intervening in Ukraine and shoveling billions into a proxy war with Russia is more important than fixing our failed inner cities and addressing honestly the cultural issues we face as a society.

We are all cowards and fools for allowing the issues in these communities to fester for 70 years rather than on-shoring manufacturing jobs to reenergize these areas, locking up those who kill those around them indiscriminately and breaking up the generational poverty in communities that two or three generations ago were on their way to achieving middle class status.

People have no concept of how much infrastructure we could’ve built with the money that’s been wasted keeping Putin from overturning the color revolution we ran in Ukraine to enrich a handful of powerful groups.

Doesn't matter, they'll pull the lever for D which keeps the gravy train rolling down the track.
