Sure, we pretend to care. We all have our "thoughts and prayers" on auto-reply. Like that does any good.

We have long ago surrendered. We just hope it doesn't touch us or someone we know. And if it does - tough [bleep]. Better luck next time. The cost of freedom. Whatever.

It's better to be able to kill deer than to not be able to kill people. Children even.

So - man up! No one said living in America was going to be easy.

And this, ladies and gentlemen, is the argument from the left. If you don't pass strict gun control, you don't care about the dead.

Let's ignore that the federal government failed to do their job, so he was allowed to buy a gun. Let's ignore that a good guy with a rifle stopped him. Let's ignore that the hero that stopped the shooting was a NRA shooting instructor, kept his ammo separated from the gun (and magazines for some reason), and kept his rifle in a safe. 

I guess when you have nothing else to add, just villainize those that don't agree with you.

See you are part of the problem. You aren't offering enough thoughts and prayers and blaming those poor innoccent guns.

What is needed is more brave nra funded politicians who are quick to twitter to remind us idiots to offer our thoughts and prayers so it doesn't happen again.

The NRA has given less than $1 million to politicians. The NRA is powerful because of their members, not the lie that they pay off politicians.
