It seems to me her Dad Sean, the Congressman, was using her as a prop to gain votes for him from the LGBT community and the gun confiscation crowd.

And now he

(like TalyObiden ),

has an

,,,,,” “MY CHILD DIED “ card

to continue to use her as a prop.

True for most women. They don’t tend to use a gun

Firearms are the fifth most common method of suicide in women.

Firarms are the most common method of suicide in men.

It doesn’t matter who votes, it matters who counts the votes.

“Illinois has special provisions for a suspicious child death.”

That is for little people.

Very sad. I see she was misled about the Constitution and the events of January 6, but who cares?

The loss of a young life is a tragedy. I hope her friends and family can take stock of their own souls in this tough time.

“I feel really bad for a lot of these young girls who are getting their heads filled with socialist hate in our public schools. Half of them graduate thinking their number one goals is social justice and fixing “climate change”. Really sad. RIP.”

Then add in they are told you can do anything, and you can have it all.

*** Do they even have fun anymore?***

What they consider fun probably isn’t what we used to call fun. Video games and tik tok dance moves. What does it say if you are so wrapped up into gun violence that you teach other kids how to pack a gun wound? Poor kid.

I’m sorry for the family. I wish no one had to bury their kids.

This happens in private schools, too. Public schools aren’t the only culprits.

When young health people die suddenly with no underlying illness it is probably either drugs or the covid shot. Very sad is this. She was a young pretty girl dedicated to her cause.

What a trashy post. A good sign of how far posting quality by many FReepers has fallen.

Grow up and do better.
