More than 30 children have already been murdered this year in school shootings. It’s hard to even get an exact count of the deaths in classrooms and how many school shootings there have been in 2018, because most tallies don’t account for guns near school property, others just aren’t up to date. And even more outrageous is how routine it is today, that these incidents come and go in the regular news cycle.
In the final episode of South Park’s 19th season in 2015—one of its greatest of all time, which it hasn’t recreated since—the show satirized America’s obsession with guns. It detailed an anxious nation destroying itself with instruments of death.
Nearly three years later, nothing has changed—other than the body count....
But consistently, South Park has been at its best when it addresses gun control. This is because South Park co-creator Matt Stone grew up in Littleton, Colorado, where Columbine kicked off our epidemic of school massacres. In fact, a few years after Columbine, Stone was interviewed by Michael Moore where he discussed the shamelessness and insensitivity of the NRA holding a pro-gun rally in Colorado shortly after the 1999 shooting.
That shamelessness seems tame by today’s standards, when evil people are harassing and attempting to discredit survivors of school shootings.

Another show to stop watching.
I can see how Hollywood lefties would absolutely want gun people to stop watching South Park.
**Littleton, Colorado, where Columbine kicked off our epidemic of school massacres.**
First school massacre was in 1764, Pennsylvania. The Enoch Brown School house massacre. I first read about it in an old book, ROMANCE AND TRAGEDY OF PIONEER LIFE by August Lynch Mason.

Another took place in 1867, Hamilton Texas.

They’ve been trending left for awhile. Starting with Obama’s election where they refused to mock him then going fill out to attack Trump while tossing aside their more conservative characters.
I think they’ve been hanging out with the NY theater crowd too much with the Book of Mormon.
The person writing this hysterical anti-gun article is giving his extremely biased opinion of the episodes.
Did Kenny make it?
How many were gangbangers shot by other gangbangers? How many were accidental shootings through stupidity in handling firearms, rather than murder?
The number of school shootings are inflated. The media report tentative reports that there may be a shooter as an actual shooting. When NPR actually called schools, they found that more than 90% of “reported” shootings didn’t actually happen, whether “kid brandished gun but was arrested first” or prank calls or “kid brings foil wrapped burrito and someone tells cops it is a rifle”.
The School Shootings That Weren’t

“.. 30 children have already been murdered this year in school shootings ...”
Nationwide leftist uproar.
30 people were shot in Chicago last weekend.
Crickets.
We abort more than 30 kids per hour.
They can say whatever they want to say.
And they can think whatever they want to think.
But come after the only way I have to defend myself and that’s a cause that I’ll die for.
In other words, Cold dead hands.
I think they killed Kenny.
I wouldn’t call it apathy. Rather, the Left blocks anyone from trying to stop it with armed teachers, guards, etc. They want it to keep going to push anti-gun laws.
Well... DUH!!
1,000,000 dead future Americans a year due to CHOICE just might cause some 'apathy' SOMEwhere!!.
Yes, they have.
Tonight's show is supposed to be a dig at Kavanaugh and Roseanne.
First time I will dump an episode (and the timer) from my DVR without watching.
