      If you don’t understand the different reaction between something reported to have happened and something documented with multiple videos you don’t understand humans much.

        I’ve always said all legislators should be required to walk through the aftermath of an event like sandy Hook or Uvalde before they are allowed to vote on gun legislation. And while I understand why parents would never want video of that made available to the public, I also think it would make a huge difference in public opinion if it was–that’s why I say at least the lawmakers should have to see it (and sight isn’t the only sense of it they’d never forget).

          I have no doubt of any of that. They wont make it public and all the reasons they use will never be their reason. They don’t want us to see how they failed. That a exonerated coward stood by while it was happening and broke his oath doing so. That none of of the law enforcement on site had the courage to go in and end it. If that video would have been made public though it would have not changed the politicians that much. Far too many of them lack the ability to feel the pain of others. Its how they got to where they are.

          Its not a troll. Its a genuine comment on the nature of people and where and why they focus on certain atrocities more than others.

            No, you’re a troll, because he’s not suggesting they disarm the entity that was murdering people. He wants to disarm the people who are getting murdered.

            It’s not the video causing him to make this statement.

              I’m not but you can’t seem to understand or comprehend what I’m saying and I have no more time to waste on any of you.
