I was one of those numb people that the President spoke of today and it made me physically ill. As soon as I can tear myself away from my job and turn on the tee vee during the day, when I see that bright red "Breaking News" banner, I just know what it will mean, and that sickens me.
I work from home (thank the Lords of Kobol) from about 5 am PST to 12 noon. I can usually stop and watch TV and have breakfast for a few minutes, but today I was busy and couldn't. When I could finally watch my gut said, "something bad happened" It had to be gun related, it had to be a public place, school, church, movie theater - and that made me so upset, that it's so commonplace now, so typical that what first went through my mind was the sickening scenario we've seen over and over and over and over again. The President, in his address, was spot on, echoed what so many of us think and feel, and of course, he knew that the NRA and their sick f&*k like minded organizations and brethren were frantically writing their pat, typical, been there, disgusting press releases as our President was trying to hold back tears and justifiable rage at what had happened today.
Enough is enough! I have always said and many would disagree that we "needed" to see the inside of a classroom in Sandy Hook that day, that we needed to see the harsh, heartbreaking reality of gun violence in this country. It's extreme yes, but how else can we convey what guns do to the innocents among us? It has to stop. The NRA simply can't PR this shit away again, we can't let them!!!! The President is so right, hearing Brian Williams, hearing Wolf Blitzer and the other daytime anchors spout the same sh&t we've heard over and over again: Where were you? What did you hear? What did you see? What was being said on social media? Enough!
I am sickened and saddened as most of us are. The NRA and their ilk can go f&*k themselves. They are done. The gun orgasm crowd can eat me for all I care.
End of rant!!!
11:26 PM PT: Clickbait! FU who responded as such. The elite is what keeps this suppressed They have the connections, the PR people "working" on this at all times to keep the PR damage minimal. Sure your average, everyday, Jethro in Bumfuck, GA or whatever will chime in, but who holds the puppet strings? Clickbait indeed! Clickbait my skinny white ass.
