Stuff, Mostly Cats

I still remember being in high school immediately after the Parkland shooting. My homeroom teacher looked thirty terrified teenagers in the eye and told us exactly what he would do if there was an active shooter. He said he would block the door with his body.

He told us, “I have lived a good enough life to attempt to buy you some time to jump out of the third-story windows and give you a chance to live.”

At the time, Republicans claimed that school shootings and piles of dead children were a necessary price to pay to protect the Second Amendment. They insisted the right to bear arms was absolute and untouchable.

But now? They say the Second Amendment no longer applies when the guns are being wielded by law-abiding protesters.

Now, the Second Amendment apparently doesn’t apply because ICE agents can kill someone and use the fact that he was simply legally carrying a gun as justification for that murder.

This is what matters to them more than keeping children safe and alive. It was never about the Constitution. It is about who they believe is allowed to hold the power.

The standoff with agents happened on Jan. 8, one day after an ICE agent shot and killed Renee Good in south Minneapolis. Wooten’s refusal to comply with ICE was captured on video and posted to Facebook. 

The agents tried everything to intimidate the guard.

 “You can’t come back here, bro,” Wooten can be heard in the video saying to an agent wearing a mask and sunglasses. “I’m talking to your manager,” the agent said. Wooten responded: “No, you’re talking to security, I’m in charge.”

ICE left empty-handed. Wooten said he just stood his ground, “10 toes down.”

“I was doing my job like I’m supposed to,’’ Wooten said. “If you don’t stand for something, you’ll fall for anything. I just want to make my family safe because I’ve been here three years.”

First hand accounts on the devastation ICE is causing Minnesota. And with the 1000 more of those losers that came that I talked about yesterday, there are more of them than actual police officers there. That is fucking sad.

And I want everyone to remember that ALL of this started because of this assclown

As far as I’m concerned, Renee Good’s blood is on his hands.

This is what Donald Trump said about Alex Pretti.

“I don't like that he had a gun. I don't like that he had two fully loaded magazines. That's a lot of bad stuff. And despite that, I'd say that's... very unfortunate.”

“You know, you can't have guns. You can't walk in with guns. You just can't.”

~ Donald J. Trump

Don’t miss any opportunity to remind the maga people in your life that Trump threw the 2nd amendment under the bus the minute he felt a little heat from the good people in Minnesota.

It won’t make a bit of difference. The NRA was in favor of gun control when it was the Black Panthers who were advocating for open carry, and so was Ronald Reagan (along with all the then-extremist right wing). It was never about absolutism on gun rights, it was about making a threat against Those People (including everyone on the left). You’re once again expecting a bunch of people who have been liars and hypocrites for decades to suddenly sit up and say “goodness, I must obey the logical consequences of my beliefs, rather than use claims about my beliefs as a way to advocate for my own prejudices and convenience as I have done for my entire life!” It’s not going to happen.

it's blowing my mind rn that it really turns out candace owens is the only friend charlie kirk had in life and she's so mad about his widow's reaction she just leaked an audio from a few days after his death where erika kirk is on a zoom call giddy about the bump in merch sales and the memorial being "the event of the century"

This truly isn’t fixable anymore. Once he’s dead and republicans try to run away from their treasonous behavior, we the people are going to have to overhaul the country and the constitution from top to bottom. We must have a new system of government with rock solid guardrails in place so that someone like shitler can never take over our country and institutions ever again.
