Speak for yourself, my friend. Just about anyone who has studied childhood development should understand the potential consequences of a bad environment early in life.

You and RAGE poster should form a band or something

Hate promotes violence, y'all.

Thank gd

With half her face blown out. Her life is completely altered in one second

The child did not get half her face “blown out.” The mother texted the Gov with an update to her injuries.

The mother asks for prayer for her child. Thank G-d this child is up playing and running around!

Um, lip, teeth and tongue damage is pretty significant damage to your face. I get that they are trying to be hopeful and all that, but it is NOT a pretty picture right now. It can be repaired, but she still will probably not be the same.

A bad childhood lays the foundation for a troubled adulthood. Duh.

Odessa police chief Michael Gerke declined to name the shooter. “I refuse to. I am not going to give him any notoriety.”

I think that's BS, frankly. This person committed a crime against society. We understandably want to know who he is try to make sense of this crime. Try to understand what factors DO lead to this sort of crime. I think we have a right to know his name.

How does knowing his name help you understand? We can learn how he came to commit the crime without it.

And really the HOW DID HIS HAPPEN is simply because guns are RAMPANT in our society, encouraged even.

The shooter's name is Seth Aaron Ator, 36 years old.

That's not good.

Seriously. When you have a few minutes, please look at and listen to the footage of this murderer firing the AR rifle during the massacre. It literally sounds like a war zone.

There is absolutely NO REASON[u] for any citizen to have a gun that can fire bullets so rapidly.

Regardless of where you stand on gun ownership, banning ARs is simply a make sense decision.

Rs are fine with this, Trump is fine with it. They want no change. Cost of doing business. If I were an R, I would leave the party in shame. Rs, how can you be associated with a party that condones this and advocates for the status quo?

You are continuing a lie about an injured child to try to get republicans. Shame.
