    Yeah, in the United States. Not in other western countries. Wonder why, JD? Maybe because it’s a “fact of life” that’s created and sustained by people like you…

    1. Force unwanted children into this world
    2. Give no childcare support
    3. Send them to underfunded schools
    4. Offer no mental healthcare programs
    5. Make guns readily available
    6. “Facts of life”

      I believe the assumption is this only applies to brown children. H’wite childrens obviously go to private school and have top tier medical care.

        I don’t have any stats on this, but when I think of a school shooter, I think of a white kid.

        Maybe that’s why there’s so much tolerance for them. Boys will be boys.

        this only applies to brown children

        No. It applies to poor children. While it’s true that poor children are more likely to be Brown, but it’s really the poor that’s the factor in this case.

    How about this.

    Take JD Vance saying that this is just a “fact of life” and start playing that on political ads all over Georgia. I don’t like the idea of exploiting tragedy for political purposes but I think people who are considering voting for this waste of oxygen should know that he considers their kids nothing more than collateral damage.

      They have a comprehensive two-pronged approach, they start with thoughts and immediately follow up with prayers, but for the sake of efficiency, they don’t actually think or pray.

        No, no, the thought is “They’re just a liberal crisis actor trying to take away the one thing that makes me feel cool and powerful because my life is a heap of dogshit,” then they pray for you to go to hell. Easy!

    In case anyone still had doubts that all of their “won’t somebody think of the children!” bullshit was just political theater.

    Conservatism is a deadly cancer that needs to be eradicated to save humanity. There is no place in a modern culture for toxic, hate-based ideologies like conservatism. That’s just a fact of life.

    Yeah they are now. but they shouldn’t be don’t have to be. These conservative lunatics don’t understand the concept of compromise whatsoever.

    Maybe Lindsay “no joy in real life” Graham is so joyless because of all the JD Vance-sponsored school shootings.

    “Fact of life”, Shay Dee Vance is a mentally underdeveloped humanoid. Another, “fact of life” - there is a lot of profit and money to grease politician’s hands in those look-alike military gun sales for LARPERS.
