JD Vance says that school shootings are just a "fact of life."
I wonder if all this rage and hopelessness is starting to find a more productive outlet.
If the choice is between school shootings or CEO shootings, the latter is preferrable. I'd take that trade even if I were a CEO, but I doubt most CEO's would.
It’s more targeted too, one target vs as many as possible.
Then it's logical that preventing politician shootings should be budgeted similarly. Time to defund the entire secret service as part of those 75% government employee cuts. School shootings being resourced differently than oligarch shootings is a violation of the equal protections clause of the constitution, and therefore an illegal waste of our tax money.
Some of it may, but not all of it.
