If you are okay with having Muslim, Jewish and Hindu students sit through a Christian prayer in public school, and not okay with having Christian students sit through a Muslim, Jewish or Hindu prayer, then it’s NOT religious freedom- it’s religious oppression.

Forced birth in a country with:
—No universal healthcare
—No universal childcare
—No paid family & medical leave
—One of the highest rates of maternal mortality among rich nations
This isn't about "life." It's about control.

NEW: Marjorie Taylor Greene— who is accusing Democrats of “child grooming”— has hired far-right Milo Yiannopoulos as an intern. Yiannopoulos has advocated for legalizing sex between 13-year-olds and adults because he says 13-year-olds are not children and are “sexually mature.”

Canadian here, your neighbour with cold winters and sensible gun laws. Did you know we’ve had 11 school shooting deaths? Not this month or this year, but total, in history. And absolutely no deaths in elementary schools. Why? Because gun laws save lives.
Listen. It’s the guns.

We need to:
Ban assault weapons — and if we can’t, then we should raise the age to purchase them from 18 to 21.
Ban high-capacity magazines.
Strengthen background checks.
Enact safe storage laws and red flag laws.
Repeal gun manufacturers’ immunity from liability.

Dear NBC. The White House is not adrift, it’s dealing with the most ferocious multilateral attack on America in US history. Joe Biden is keeping America from becoming Germany in 1933 which your reporting conveniently omits.

The only question for any political candidate this November has to be “Do you support the right of 18 year old boys purchasing assault rifles to kill elementary school children?” #GunControlNow
In Canada, our schools have more than one door too. We have folks struggling with mental illness. We watch the same movies, listen to the same music and play the same violent video games as Americans. And since Columbine, the US had 200 school shootings. We had 3.
It’s the guns.

The thing about having "guns" as your hobby, is that if my hobby had turned into the number one reason of death for children, I would just find another hobby.

Months ago, shared this photo. As many may remember, I was upset as this is the weapon that is always used in mass shootings. I am sharing again because I don't want anybody to forget who these people are and the role they have in the deaths of our loved ones.

There is no such thing as being “pro-life” while supporting laws that let children be shot in their schools, elders in grocery stores, worshippers in their houses of faith, survivors by abusers, or anyone in a crowded place.
It is an idolatry of violence. And it must end.

These are elementary school children who woke up this morning. Who ate their favorite cereal. Who tied their shoes in double knots. Who laughed with friends on the bus. Now more than a dozen are dead. This isn’t normal. It doesn’t have to be this way. It can’t keep being this way
