Politicians insisting you “not politicize” mass shootings enabled by horrifying policies THEY take💰to uphold are really just telling you to accept them.
But it’s not acceptable. And they are the ones politicizing by opposing common sense laws widely agreed upon by the public.
The idea that an 18-year-old can walk into a store and buy assault weapons is just wrong.
What in God’s name do you need an assault weapon for except to kill someone?
There is no such thing as being “pro-life” while supporting laws that let children be shot in their schools, elders in grocery stores, worshippers in their houses of faith, survivors by abusers, or anyone in a crowded place.
It is an idolatry of violence. And it must end.
