Sorrow reverberated across the country Sunday as Americans, including President Joe Biden, joined a Florida community in remembering the 17 lives lost three years ago in the Parkland school shooting massacre.

“In seconds, the lives of dozens of families, and the life of an American community, were changed forever,” Biden said in a statement released Sunday.

The president used the occasion to call on Congress to strengthen gun laws, including requiring background checks on all gun sales and banning assault weapons.

There was no time to wait, the president said. “We owe it to all those we’ve lost and to all those left behind to grieve to make a change. The time to act is now.”

“...The worthless FBI was warned and they did NOTHING!...”

Because it was one of their pre-programmed MK ULTRA zombie robots that did it....for the very reason of this post: gun control. My tinfoil hat doesn’t looks so “tinfoil” these days.

Want to kill a bunch of People locked inside a Classroom, use a couple of Molotov Cocktails.

It’s cheaper than buying a Gun and Ammo.

Leftists like to burn Children alive. They proved it in Waco.

They have pretty much decimated the First Amendment. Now they are going after the Second.

We all know how well “stronger gun laws” work for law-abiding citizens.

How’s them $2,000 checks coming, libs? This is what your Dear Leader is focusing on, which has no chance in Hell of even getting out of committee. Just nothing more than raising money at how those mean-old Republicans are blocking “sensible” gun control legislation.

Gun control works, so Chicago and New York must be the safest, gun crime free cities in the world!

And remember, the Gun Free Schools Act was legislation Biden crafted that gave the perp in this incident and others like Columbine in 1999 and Sandy Hook in 2012 easy targets to carry out their bloody rampages.

Actually, probably not a good time to act, with Republicans needing to get their creds back for Trump voters, and most of all, they need to first run another False Flag.

Printed Chicago newspaper box probably had bullet holes in it.
That’s why a typical Chicagoan reads it online, with their laptop and head below the house window sightlines.

One wonders if the so-called “purge of conservatives” from the military is because they intend to go house to house?

With this bunch...you never know.
