#and carrying the gun AND manifesto with you while you're trying to get away with murder and hide?

funniest possible outcome is this isn't even the guy who did it, it's just a guy seeing if he can convince people he did. second funniest possible outcome is it is him and he really does have breloom in his twitter header.

"Conservatives value human life" as long as you can score political points on them, sure. The minute a kid gets shot, it's "eh, I homeschool mine so who cares." You want to talk about disgusting? This blog certainly is.

Oh really because which side is it that stands on the graves of children to try to justify violating a human right? Which side is it that is constantly going "how many children have to die before you let us take your guns????"

Which side is it that promotes every single thing that makes schools an easy target for shooters?

Schools are soft targets because they are gun free zones and there's virtually no security, which is why these insane shooters target them. In fact the school was not the only place the Nashville shooter had considered targeting but ended up not targeting the other location specifically because they knew it was going to have better security and it would be harder to carry out a shooting. They decided not to shoot up a place because of the chance that someone there had a gun and they chose the school because they knew there was no one there with a gun to stop them. Schools advertise that they are gun free zones. We don't know what that other location was but we know the reason it wasn't selected because of what we've been told was in the manifesto.

And you added the "who cares" bit onto the homeschooling comment. It's not part of the quote and it's not even the sentiment. He was not saying "I homeschool my kid so who cares?" He was saying schools can't protect your children from something like this. They don't allow for any defense system except running away and hiding and trying to lock yourself in a room and hope the killer can't shoot through the lock. Schools are not protecting children and they haven't learned from the past that hiding isn't a good defense from a mass shooter. They are putting the lives of children on the line while waiting for people with guns to show up and stop the shooter instead of having armed adults on the property who could stop them in a matter of seconds. If parents are worried about school shootings the best thing to do is take them out of school and homeschool them. Because any parent who acts like they are worried that their child could get gunned down at school at any time and continues to send their child to school is either faking concern for a political agenda or an all around shitty parent.

Anyone who is genuinely worried that their child will get killed at school should take their kid out of school immediately instead of demanding the government do something, especially when the government has a track record of making everything worse.

You can think my blog is disgusting I don't care. The actual problem is you're not good at understanding the viewpoints and opinions of others and your inability to understand other people doesn't make me disgusting. I actually care about this issue and I want kids protected and the fact is they aren't protected at school and if you think pointing that out is disgusting that's your problem.
