The 2nd amendment was written when there was no standing army. The language pertains to militia when the country had to rely on individual citizens. We now have a standing army. Assault weapons should not be in anyone’s hands other than the military & law enforcement.

Katherine Koonce, Head of Covenant School, was described as a "saint:” “She did so much for those kids. And now gave her life protecting them. She knew every student by name. She helped when families couldn't afford things - it didn't matter. She found ways for them to stay."

I have posted this before but .. 26 years ago, a gunman entered Dunblane Primary School in Scotland, killing 16 kids and a teacher. The UK govt responded by enacting tight gun control legislation. In the 9400+ days since, there have been a total of O school shootings in the UK.

The security guard who died trying to stop the white supremacist who murdered those people at TOPS is named Aaron Salter Jr. Because I know the media isn't going to memorialize this man as a hero, I'm asking all of you to remember who he is and remember his sacrifice. #racism

Gun extremists scream threats and “We will not comply!” at @MomsDemand volunteers and Rhode Island lawmakers after gun safety legislation passes the legislature. These are the people who for too long have been allowed to have power in shaping our gun laws.

Holy shit. The former Lt. Governor of Texas Ben Barnes just came forward to say he was part of a secret Republican operation that convinced Iran to keep Americans held hostage in order to sabotage Jimmy Carter’s 1980 presidential campaign.(@peterbakernyt) nytimes.com/2023/03/18/us/po…

As @POTUS says, show us your budget and we'll see what you really value. A new analysis finds the Republican Study Committee's formal budget proposal would slash Medicare by a drastic 24%. nytimes.com/interactive/2023…

This is Blue. She was found starving in an abandoned house. She needed emergency surgery to remove seven pounds of materials from her stomach. She was eating anything she could find. Blue needs constant care to gain weight and you can help her below ❤️‍🩹 15outof10.org/blue/

In Georgia, guns are the leading cause of death for children and teens. We’re proud to organize shoulder to shoulder with relentless advocates like @MomsDemand and @sheaforgeorgia to keep young people safe. That means taking action on @AuforGA’s #HB161. #ProtectYouthNotGuns

Whatever dollar amount Dominion could win in its lawsuit against @FoxNews will be nothing in comparison to what Rupert Murdoch has cost American democracy. #DropFox
Rupert Murdoch acknowledged under oath that some Fox News hosts “endorsed” false claims of voter fraud in the 2020 election, according to newly unsealed court documents. The Fox Corp. Chairman said, “I would have liked us to be stronger in denouncing it, in hindsight.”

my mum started painting in her late 50s after never having done before, and this utterly distinct style has flown out of her and its taken some real convincing to make her believe that she's genuinely talented and that these are real art and I just want to share them
