Yeah, there was another mass shooting over the weekend, in Illinois.  Five people dead.

And ya know what? I dont care.  We as country don't care, or at least not enough to actually DO something about mass shootings.  So why should I?

I'm not gonna keep track like I did last year.  Frankly, it's too emotionally draining to keep track of  all this horror going on knowing full well no one will even try to stop it.

So fuck it.

When these things happen, if I even think of it, I'll post the following.  

Otherwise, fuck everyone all of you sending your 'thoughts and prayers' and refusing to actually DO something.  Fuck you all.

5 people shot and killed in Louisiana!

AND....I'm tacking this onto this one as well, since it's totally on point.

And hey LOOK!  Not a single one of them was born south of the Rio Grande river.  And not a single one of them as a Spanish sounding name.  And not a single one them had a language other than English as their first language.  And not a single one of them is NOT an American Citizen.

So, tell me again why we're trying to build a wall across the Southern border and not around gun nut white guys?

I'm just going by the headline, I have read no articles about this, but I'm willing to bet you the shooter was not a black man.  Why?  the headline also says the shooter was taken into custody.  Black men, with or without guns, criminals or innocents, violent or passive...black men get shot by police in America.  If you're a white guy, you're arrested by the police.  So let's just wait and see what his race is when they tell us more.

If anyone reads that and number thinks, "oh, well that's not such a high number", the person thinking that is an asshole.  And an idiot.  I can not understand how so many Americans lack empathy and compassion.  

If you're saying 124 isn't a high number, then just imagine your child, or your spouse, or your parent, or your sibling, or your friend was one of those 124.  And you didn't get to spend the holidays with them.....and never will again.  And then, imagine someone else saying, "Well yes, but I need to have this weapon that can kill dozens of people before I reload just because I want to have it...and that's more important than the life of your loved one."

And if you read all that, and did that, and AGREED that that is what you would say.  Then you need to leave my blog and never come back, and unfriend me on all social media and not contact me in person ever again. Because if you ARE someone who would say those things, then I want absolutely nothing to do with you and your dead hearted, cold, callous, inhuman life.

Last week 7 police officers were shot in South Carolina, at least one died.

And ya know how the ammo-sexual gun nuts always like to say, "The only thing that stops a BAD guy with a gun is a GOOD guy with a gun!"  

Well this situation makes me wonder 1) were none of the GOOD guy officers carrying guns and that's why they didn't stop the BAD guy, or 2) were none of the officers actually GOOD guys and that's why they didn't stop the BAD guy, or 3) was the BAD guy shooting them not really a BAD guy after all and that's why the GOOD guys didn't stop him, or 4) is that whole saying just a bunch of horseshit after all?

Which option do YOU think is correct?
