Take your bow conservatives. And be proud of what you’ve failed to accomplish.

This pisses me off. I live in Oklahoma and my son is 16 and part of his class assignment is attend live events like a football game but now it could be to dangerous. Sick of this. And Republicans will never change.

Fuck whoever that teacher is so hard for making kids to go after school activities for a grade. That's should 100% be a choice. My daughter has major anxiety issues and going to school events, or any events with large crowds is unbearable for her. She had trouble with a lunchtime party we went to recently with 10-20 people. I would read that teacher the fucking riot act.

Its for an elective class my son chose it podcast class. I too was pissed when says I got to take him to live events and pay for it all.

I assume by "podcast class" It's a reporting class, but that term is mostly dead now I guess. In that case, it's somewhat fair but the rule should just be to make a report on an event in general. (Making a report on this shooting would probably be a good one ironically.) It shouldn't have to be a school event or really anything in particular. Ideally it'd also require doing research, like a reporter should, and not just reacting to what they see.

They accomplished their goals, they just lied about what their goals were.

They're paid $16 million a year (and millions of single-issue voters who will tolerate absolutely anything as long as they have their guns) to protect the profits of gun companies, and they've absolutely accomplished that.

This child was just another person they don't give a shit about who had to suffer the consequences.
