To anyone wondering why the GOP and Trump are not doing anything to stop the senseless violence, remember who is in charge. To Putin, school shootings and all the other senseless gun violence are good things, because they weaken the United Stated. Russia did not seize control of our government because Putin loves us. Russia did not court voters in West Virginia because Putin felt their pain. Russia is being run by ex-KGB who are still following their old play-book, except now they see us as economic, not ideological rivals, and they want to supplant us as the dominant world power.
Yes, the NRA is responsible. But the NRA, like Trump and the Republican Party is another tool of Putin. If we want to end the violence and make American sane again, we need to get out the vote, and seize control of our government back from the foreign power that has staged a silent invasion.

(1,714 posts)Bill Clinton was president when the spate of school shootings in the '90's occurred, of which Columbine was just one. Was he a tool of the Russians?
Barack Obama was president when Sandy Hook and the Pulse Nightclub massacre occurred. Was he a tool of the Russians?
This kind of stuff isn't helpful.

(19,240 posts)This is not normal for the U.S. Someone wants us to think that this is the new normal. It is not normal. We do not shoot up schools a week in this country. There is a reason this is happening. It has to do with Trump and Putin and the plans to plunge us into a recession and make us heroin addicted, gun toting serfs of Mother Russia.
I feel Russia's pain. In the future, its oil will be worth zilch. Wealth in the future will be all about solar power, fresh water, agriculture, coastline (ocean resources) and tech. Russia can do the tech but places like China and India are way ahead. And Russia will never have the solar or the fresh water or the agriculture or the coastline. Russia is a great big landlocked Arctic wasteland with a little bit of green belt. So, of course it needs to do something and fast if it wants to secure its place as world leader. And so, ex-KGB reason that if they can knock us out, then their nuclear arsenal (which is all that separates them from third world status) will put them on top.
Sucks to be Russia. But that does not give them the right to come over here and kill our children. This is war.
