you even trust them with other kids, even though there are bullies and sharp objects everywhere

but you can't bring yourself to get over your stupid fucking politics and accept that your child's custodians should be armed, if they so choose, for self-defense

you would rather see your own kids dead than admit you are wrong about gun politics in america
Every news report has a thousand screenshots of twitter with people saying "THAT'S SO AWFUL LETS BAN GUNS" fact is it's nearly impossible to get a handgun in Connecticut and this guy had two of them and a bulletproof vest. No amount of regulation would have stopped this short of melting down every single gun on the planet.
