   Some reports say the suspect bought an AR-15 and 2,000 rounds of ammunition *this morning*.

   Thank G-d the Supreme Court decided background checks and waiting periods were a “violation of the right to bear arms.”

   #gunviolence: it’s as American as Apple pie.

   Look on the bright side — those dead kids and their dead teachers in GA? Yesterdays news. Literally.

   You’ll forget all about them on no time!

   Just another tragedy that happened to someone else, somewhere else.

     @timo21 tbh — the Supreme Court has made it clear that gun violence is the price we pay for the 2nd amendment.

     No amount of logic changes them.

     In fact, this term the right wingers went so far as to override Congress and make machine guns effectively legal by redefining what a machine gun is. Literally. The 2nd amendment is the most important right according to the court.

     @Dhmspector the proper question for the court is one they have dealt with before: do students have the same rights as adults? Years ago they ruled on the free speech aspect of that question. Now they need to do guns.
