‘You will either change or not. But either way, we will not be silent. You will hear our cries. You will hear our screams. You will hear our shouts. You will hear us.’
O silly FSU massacre-survivor! It hasn’t yet occurred to you – but it will – that the politicians you and your parents voted into office are at home eating popcorn, binge-watching your massacre. “Hon, is that a Glock he’s using?” “Looks more like a long gun.” “Weird. Looks like Jessie Ikner’s kid.” “Fuck it is her kid [munchmunch].” “Want another beer?” “Yeah thanks.”
They’re excited. They’re having fun. They’re not complacent. They’re totally into it.

On this I’ve always accepted reality: millions of American gunfuckers either couldn’t give a shit about, or positively enjoy, the killing spectacle. This doesn’t mean the sickening gun situation in my country is unchangeable.
But yes, a few scattered campus bleed-outs are immediately forgotten in favor of the next fun bloodbath.

Many besides me think gun control is far from an impossibility. There’s intense and broad activism around the issue, and certainly courts, for instance, are getting much more impressive in responding to gun and gun related crimes.
Trump’s romp through our institutions is true to form disgusting, but I promise you he’ll do far less damage to this country than guns will.
