        Is America great again yet? Are we winning? Because I have little pride in knowing my nation has kids worrying about dying in classrooms and being motivated to invent their own protection to just stay alive. F*ck you @GOP #NeverAgain

        Cool. How about we instead have Congress design a law that protects 14 year olds from getting shot in their schools in the first place?https://twitter.com/ABC/status/1029216446474276864 …

        What law would that be? I think murdering kids might already be illegal.

        Ah yes. The "it's impossible to solve a problem that every other country on the planet has resolved long ago" argument. Always a classic.

        Ah yes, the "straw man, false equivalency, ad hominem argument with no facts to back it up." Timeless...

        I made a comment, not like I shoved the kid on the floor ffs. I get what she's doing but my point was even if this takes off, the funds are just not there to implement this anywhere. Christ

        Teachers need to buy their own supplies, but yeah let’s spend thousands per classroom on Kevlar coccons for kids. Nothing wrong with this idea at all...

        Exactly! They won’t, unless we check their record with background checks and not let them buy guns.

        The fact our kids need such walls while at school is very disturbing. I’m all for our constitution but something seriously needs to be done by all branches of government, at all levels, to ensure our children and all future children are safe at school.
