We have their thoughts and prayers. Doesn't that stop bullets or do they just call fake news when children actually die?


Idiot. Blame the shooter, please.


I blame the shooter and the easy access to weapons.


Let’s hope her parents will be charged if it is found those guns were theirs


Her parents should be locked up for life with no parole. The are responsible for their daughters actions. Let them rot.


She was 28, her parents are not responsible for anything

Actually I think it was a book

Remember that old saying "When you pray, move your feet"

I'm quite religious by DC standards... but anyone who offers prayers without also doing everything they can to prevent this in the future isn't actually doing God's work.

So *say* your prayers for sure, but also *act* on your prayers. And until you do, shut up.

Per the perusal of Foxnews comments every time something like this happens, it's:

-That we don't have enough armed guards at schools ("lots of retired veterans would be happy to guard schools!") ignoring that we have mass shootings with armed guards anyways, and at other locations besides schools including concerts, malls, movie theaters, workplaces, churches, and on and on
-That we don't arm teachers (most teachers don't want to be armed, I know many of them and they have enough to worry about let alone carrying a loaded gun that kids could easily get ahold of)
-That it's our lack of family values as a country/society in the USA that is to blame (specifically democratic erosion of traditional family values)... basically a "shrug, can't do nothing about that till we have better morals!" response that is useless
-We have enough gun laws, more won't do anything

blah blah blah. Conservatives have absolutely nothing helpful to say and it keeps happening and rinse and repeat.


Tbh I just pray it happens at schools filled with the kids of Republican elites. Then only way they change their tune is when it happens to them. They don’t give a f#ck about anyone else.

That said, I wish for a world with strong gun control and an absence of school shootings.


Wow. Just wow.


Yes, I am also shocked at how ghoulish the Republican elites conduct themselves. Democrats have been begging for 20 years for sensible gun reforms and the Republicans just grow more extreme, egged on by our lunatic Supreme Court.

If we are going to have a country with mass shootings, I’m going to pray that it mostly affects those who enable it to happen and block good-faith reforms. Reap what you sow, and all that.


Multiple posters on this thread have literally said they hope the dead children have Republican parents, and you're calling Republicans "ghoulish?" I've never seen/heard Republicans hoping for dead children.


Maybe not but can you name any Republicans who would trade their right to a gun for the life of one child?

Well, there was that one time when Abbott said it could have been worse (Uvalde). Republican LEOs weren’t killed.

Just stop.

Such a hateful statement.
Thankfully, the shooter is dead. Pray for the children and the families.


OP here. I am a mother of two elementary school students and I am fed up with "thoughts and prayers" and no action every time I see another school shooting.

So unless you have something more productive to offer than "pray" (FYI, I'm an atheist, so no, I won't), you stop please. Stop and offer potential solutions that aren't prayers and more doors.


That is evident from your first sentence.


You seem to be implying that is a negative thing.


OP here. Yep, it was clear that was the implication. Atheists can't be loving mothers, right? Also, mothers who are loving and virtuous shouldn't feel emotions of rage and anger when elementary school children are shot, right?. Pretty sure they believe I've got devil horns hidden under the hair on my head.
.



I am religious and I also would prefer to see action not cheap words. Atheists are often very loving and responsible people.

The escalating gun violence needs to be addressed in realistic and pragmatic gun controls.

It is horrifying that our children and youth fear for their lives while Simply going to school.

These poor children who are the latest victims of mass shootings and their families.

May God comfort those who Mourn and may we change our ways and create more realistic gun safety controls/ laws/ policies and prevent more senseless violence.

Don't be angry at the poster. Be angry at the politicians who the poster is quoting.

The entire blame falls on politicians.

Sure there is a mental health crisis, but without access to guns, the vast majority of these issues disappear. Politicians/law enforcement hold that key.

Now the right wing can no longer go around saying "mass shootings happen because there isn't enough God in schools"

So are you going to allow citizens to protect the schools with guns? Or are you gonna hope and pray that guns magically disappear from this world?

It took Nashville police 14 minutes from 1st 911 call to arrive at scene‼️

OP here. Thank you. That is a useful prayer.

Of course they have. But you mitigate your chances of being caught in one.

I don’t go to the movies or to church.

It is our nation’s great shame. History is going to consider us barbarians and they won’t be wrong.

If more guns are the answer, why does US have statistically far more issues with this than other areas?

If armed guards are the answer, why did it fail in Ulvade, Buffalo, etc?

If we only talk about schools, we neglect all the other places shootings happen from churches to grocery stores to malls to movie theaters to private workplaces and more.

What is your solution in light of all of this?
