I feel like we should say it every time a mother is shot by her neighbor, or a regular commuter is shot by a police officer because he owns a gun, in the most prolific gun toting country on Earth. I feel like we should say it every time a man is killed on video by police, or a classroom of kids is gunned down and we continue to act as if the ONE thing we need to start doing absolutely cannot be done because it “impedes” the rights of those who do not live on the other end of that spectrum. It should never and will never lose its impact because people are straight up over this bullshit. It may lose its impact to the run of the mill armchair warrior, but that’s it, and I’m ok with that.
Edit: I’m sorry that I sound so bitchy JJROKCZ, I just got off shift with a trauma red in the bay, shot in the throat ffs. I appreciate your opinion and I’m glad we can have these conversations.
Dave Grossman, a graduate of the school of killology. It’s in the title ffs. This is what’s being taught to our ‘protectors’.
