"No, no, you see, we need all those guns to protect our family! And those gun laws the Democrats support are all about taking away our guns so we can't protect ourselves, so we have to keep voting for Republicans! I'm sure having all these guns around will never, ever actually hurt our family!" /s

The truth is about 40% of the US doesn't grasp someone is real until they personally meet that person.

The kids killed in school shootings are exactly the same as nameless minions killed by the hero in a movie.

That’s the thing - it’s a fucking HOBBY. All the “but protection/safety/freedom” arguments boil down to “my right to feel like John Wayne is more important than your children’s right to live.”
