It’s my birthday & I’ll ask for the immediate national ban & collection of guns that have the potential to fire (or be adapted to fire) more than 6 rounds per minute if I want to.
Short of that, maybe we can have one fucking day without a mass shooting in America?

“Then Carrot said, "It's better to light a candle than curse the darkness, captain. That's what they say."
“What?" Vimes' sudden rage was like a thunderclap. "Who says that? When has that ever been true? It's never been true! It's the kind of thing people without power say to make it all seem less bloody awful, but it's just words, it never makes any difference…”

@asociologist @DemocracyMattersALot I always wondered exactly what good obfuscating the windows would really do. It tells the shooters someone is likely inside and there are literally no limits to how much ammo they can buy, so why isn’t the assumption that he will simply AR-15 blast a whole magazine through the door, hoping to get lucky?
These people do not need to take aim, they need to switch high capacity magazines and for their weapons not to jam.

These are the active shooter instructions for my son’s infant daycare room.
This sheet of paper is supposed to protect him. It won’t. But, to be fair, neither will the people who actually could.
