Bacon, Eggs and Mass Shootings

I wonder what it would be like to wake up and not hear about the latest mass murder committed in America.  I think it would be lovely - like having a pumpkin turn into a glass coach to convey you to the ball, a gown made of birds and butterflies or winning the freaking lottery when you have exactly $8.37 in your wallet and payday is two days away.

This gun-loving nation suffers yet another tragedy, while our leaders offer thoughts, prayers and little else to keep us safe.

Bottom line - the NRA is a terrorist organization whom offers huge sums of cash to politicians in exchange for the right to put every possible weapon out there on our streets.  We all know politician is a polite word for money grubbing whore, and that the standard rhetoric will be "it's too soon to talk about gun control".

In Louisiana, one of our U.S. representatives was shot up at a Washington D.C. baseball game.  (The extent of his injuries remains a private matter, but I'm guessing his manhood is no longer fully intact.)  Yet, this same congressman advocates for gun rights and is still taking money from the NRA.  He is immensely popular among his constituents.  Personally, he falls into my category of "you can't fix stupid", and another unfortunate truth that you can still screw many people even without a proper set of balls.

When one becomes a victim of gun violence, and one still advocates for the NRA and gun rights, including assault/military grade weapons, then one has lost all credibility of having any integrity whatsoever not to mention any semblance of sanity.

I don't think anyone has to look any further than this particular congressman to understand America's violent and murderous nature.  Scalise Unchained.  The intelligence is silent. That's what we got here down in the deep south. We will serve up a healthy dose of NRA rhetoric with your morning grits.  We will put on a suit and tie to hide the fact that underneath, we're a predatory and dangerous animal.  America will continue to build warships, warplanes, and warmongers because we're so great we have to protect our greatness.

We're not so great.  We have been unraveling since Columbine.  There's a big hole in our fabric and our sorry a$$ is showing.  Don't tell the Emperor.  He'll take your press pass.
