In the meanwhile I need to do some ripping myself. Or at least post the rips of others.
The next time @SpeakerPelosi, @LeaderHoyer, @JimClyburnSC1 or anyone else in the @DNC ask for your vote to stop gun slaughter (or to protect Roe), just say 'Henry Cuellar (NRA A rating).'

And maybe add 'Uvalde, TX'. pic.twitter.com/UIcnXR995a

Liberals will focus on guns, because they have no intention of really changing this society of alienation and extraction and exploitation. The conservatives will focus on the culture war or some other distraction because they are slavering demons who feed on the suffering.

18 children dead in Texas and ICE is on scene which means many parents will have to risk detention in US concentration camps while checking if their kid is alive

Texas law, in its own way, requires public schools districts to play a part in helping financially prop up gun manufacturers.

To be eligible for underwriting Texas school bonds, banks have to certify that they don’t refuse to do business with gunmakers. https://t.co/L5UHS3kWvh

“Vote” is just “thoughts and prayers” for liberals. Every year, millions of people vote to make a negligible difference in their lives. Are those urging us to vOtE implying that 14 children would not have perished today if people voted harder?

This is one of the cartoons in my winning entry for the @RFKHumanRights award. How American that it was announced on the same day as another school shooting. #RFKBJA #SchoolShooting #Texaselementary #TexasMassacre pic.twitter.com/veJUy48u4S

On the other hand, maybe I should just let the assholes speak for themselves.
This is Tony Gonzales, who represents the district that contains the elementary school in Uvalde, Texas that just got shot up. pic.twitter.com/imRGq3Y8Nn

Cruz on new gun laws: “Inevitably when there's a murderer of this kind, you see politicians try to politicize it, you see Democrats and a lot of folks in the media whose immediate solution is to try to restrict the constitutional rights of law abiding citizens,” per @jessicadean

It never fails to amaze me how a supreme deity with -- allegedly -- the power to have prevented these tragedies should be the one summoned to comfort the grieving. The Gawd these people worship is not supposed to be an idle bystander, nor for that matter an observer with some unquantifiable and apparently variable degree of empathy.
Here in reality, They is those things. In Jesusland, Dey 'pose to be something bigger and stronger than that. This inability to live in Factghanistan is a massive piece of our collective problem, as a species and a culture. What should we do about that?
I know what we should do; what we will be doing is precisely the same thing our elected officials have done, are doing, and will do about the gun carnage in this nation.
Absofuckinglutely nothing.
