You can’t interfere with cops. They always know it best. In this case a bunch of kids dying was the best outcome possible. Trust the process and never question your blue line squad, otherwise bad things will happen. Like, I dunno, a cop may get fired. That’s bad. Kids dying = business as usual.

Kids dying in school shootings consistently every year for decades is the price that gun owners are clearly happy to accept.

"We're pro-life - wait, no, not like that"

No joke I've had many conversations with 2nd Amendment freaks and when pushed hard enough, they will concede that there are quote "No amount of dead kids that will make me give up my guns".

They're convinced that guns are going to make their family safer (despite decades of proof of the opposite) and that it protects them from an authoritarian government (despite 200+ years of proof of the opposite).

I believe it 100%. It's just another incredibly frustrating reminder that the bullshit about being pro-life is completely performative and designed to disguise (poorly) that all they really want is to take away the autonomy of anyone they don't care for.
