They’ll teach Johnny how to tourniquet Susie’s shot off left arm, they’ll hand Miss Smith the second grade teacher a shotgun, they’ll add metal detectors, and safe rooms, and sharks with frickin’ laser beams attached to their heads… they’ll pay some bazillionaires a trillion bucks a year to run lockdown drills, but they won’t do anything about the reason for all of it.
They won’t do anything about the guns.

As a parent I’m not worried that my 9 and 13 year olds are going to be “indoctrinated” with “wokeness” at school.
I’m not worried that they’re going to ‘feel guilty about their whiteness’ because they’re learning accurate history.
I’m not worried that they’re going to be “groomed” to become furries and to make their pees pees in litter boxes.
Those things aren’t real.
Wanna know what is real?
My worry that they’re going to get shot. That someone with an AR-15 is going to go into their school and shoot them.
So, while the same gun fetishizing, AR-15 lapel pin wearing, locked and loaded family Christmas card posing Republicans fear monger & manufacture crises under the guise of “parents rights”, I say this:
It is my right as a parent to send my kids to school without worrying that they will get shot.
It ain’t the drag queens, the African American history, the books with two moms or two seahorse dads which threaten our kids.
It’s the fucking guns.
Kim Reynolds is not a unifier. She’s intent on dividing Iowans along ideological lines, punching down on anyone who dares to question her.
This Governor has failed to lead.
Last #DamarHamlin tweet…
Diagnosis can wait
Genetic testing can wait
ICD can wait
Football can wait
1. Learn CPR.
2. Do CPR.
3. Get familiar with an AED… easy to use by non-medical bystander, and hard to hurt someone with it
Let's take a break and watch a clip of Damar Hamlin giving his family some love just prior a game.
This is what needs to be seen right now.
Please be okay 🙏
after fanning the flames of homophobia for years, lauren boebert is praying for the 5 people murdered in a gay club in her home state. lauren, i hope you see them every time you close your eyes for the rest of your life
.@laurenboebert you have played a major role in elevating anti-LGBT+ hate rhetoric and anti-trans lies while spending your time in Congress blocking even the most common sense gun safety laws.
You don’t get to “thoughts and prayers” your way out of this. Look inward and change.
I just stepped off the stage from the *one and only* debate Kim Reynolds agreed to.
She used the time to make clear that she's only fighting for her extremist, MAGA agenda – not Iowans’.
We can defeat her in just 22 days, can we get 6K RTs on this to build on our momentum?
DSM Register joins the chorus of voices denouncing @IAGovernor@KimReynoldsIA's racist ad, depicting a Black woman, but not DeJear. "The ad is dehumanizing, racist, embarrassing & indefensible. It should be beneath any Iowa elected official."https://t.co/mEmEybQRPb
