I'm sick of it! Every time we experience the tragedy of a mass shooting, conservatives immediately begin politicizing the issue with their anti-gun control rhetoric.

I'm tired of tuning into NPR to hear about the details of a shooting and the proposed gun legislation that sensibly follows only to hear brief, condescending mention of the tired, worn-out talking points of conservatives who just can't wait to jump up and down on the graves of these shooting victims for the sole, shameless purpose of promoting their political agenda.

Like, really?

Wow, just wow. Couldn't wait to get all political right after the shooting, could you?

>BuT iT'S OuR RiGhT To bEaR ArMs sO ThAt wE MaY HaVe a dEfEnSe aGaInSt tYrAnNy.

Why are you even talking about it now? Like what could inspire you to spout off these stupid anti-gun control arguments other than you saw an opportunity to capitalize on an atrocity?

How freaking tone deaf to suggest something like that immediately following a shooting?

You are using the victims of a tragedy for selfish purposes.

STOP IT!

As a general rule of thumb, though I may occasionally break it as I'm just human, on any huge national story I try to give it at least a few days before commenting. I like to soak up the news and get a true assessment of the situation before I jump on the often nonsensical initial ... blame anyone ... comment band wagon - LOL. There is good and evil in this world ... has been since the beginning of time and will be for the foreseeable future. It is impossible to stop the evil from doing what they're going to do ... anyone who tells you otherwise hasn't lived long enough to see through the BS.
