School shootings just the worst. I know the Onion headline '‘No Way To Prevent This,’ Says Only Nation Where This Regularly Happens' is the go-to joke, but fuckin' hell these kids should never have to go through this. Black kids, white kids, rich kids, poor kids, should just have the chance to be kids. You shouldn't have to deal with this level of trauma as a kid.
No doubt there are a ton of cool leftist things we need to do in society to fix this shit, but it's deeply fucked up that this is "normal" now.
Reminds me of the preschoolers in Mexico who had a drawing assignment and they drew a bunch of dead bodies and gore and shit but like the 5 year old version so just incredibly crude
I think it's made weird in the US because everyone in Mexico knows things are fucked and wishes they could change it but the powers that be are just too strong, but the USA still presents itself as having the veneer of safety and stability when it's clear that it has serious social problems. Most people don't even acknowledge that it's a problem that kids are dying in school shootings, and some people even seem to be OK with it in the name of "liberty".

The US is similar here, except one of the powers that be is the US news and entertainment industry, which keeps insisting everything is fine, and does it so loudly that it gaslights people into acting like they are.
