THEY'RE EVERYHERE. AND, THANKS TO REPUBLICANS, THEY HAVE GUNS.

While the shooting incident on the baseball field in Alexandria today was very disturbing, it also unleashed tons of maudlin sentiments, insincere promises of bipartisanship which will be forgotten long before Congressman Steve Scalise's wound heals, and a sickening display of superstitious Christianity suggesting that we Americans don't know, nor do we accept, any other religion. But worst of all, this shooting has all has the shallow and gullible newscasters praising Trump for not sending his usual insane tweet. Apparently he can act like an asshole for weeks, but if he behaves normally for ten minutes, not only is all forgiven but admired. Yes, these shootings
are terrible, tragic, too often heartbreaking, but I would like the Republicans (whom this man targeted) to keep in mind it is they who insist on keeping hideable guns and terrifying assault weapons in the hands of just about anybody who suddenly feels like going on a rampage.

Isn't it nice that after today's tragedy the Republicans can suddenly be be so kissy, huggy, and buddy buddy with Democrats—something they can never be while doing the jobs we pay them so much for?
