McConnell is finally growing a spine, and with his example, more republicans are following suit. No Alabama ones, though. It shouldn't take someone else standing up for a person to do what's right. I'm so ashamed right now for the GOP. Gross. I will stop short of saying too little too late because it's never too late to do the right thing. It's just icky that they had to make sure that it was popular enough first.

Speaking of the GOP, I'm just waiting to see them call for a boycott of GQ Magazine since they've just named Kaepernick their Citizen of the Year.

Conservatives boycott Kaepernick for using his First Amendment right and they now they're boycotting Keurig for being against pedophiles. Just gonna leave this here.

You know we live in a sad society where even hardened criminals have more of a moral compass and are against pedophilia unlike other contributing members of society. I mean really, you can have people out there who commit some of the most henious crimes against humanity, but even they draw the line at harming children, so when pedophiles get locked up with these guys . . . well, it's best not to imagine what they end up going through, but let's just say, it didn't take long for Jared the Subway Guy to meet such a fate once he got locked up.

Okay, one more thing to check off the list from the Texas church shooting, the very last item:
  • Republicans will offer their thoughts and prayers
  • Democrats will say thoughts and prayers are not enough and more action needs to be taken to prevent these shootings from continuing to happen
  • Republicans will attack Democrats for trying to politicize a tragedy for the sake of pushing anti-gun agendas
  • Democrats will attack Republicans for trying to politicize a tragedy for the sake of pushing pro-gun agendas
  • Trump will find some reason to blame the tragedy on Democrats while Pat Robertson and/or other Evangelicals will blame the victims for not supporting Trump
  • When the shooter is identified, he will immediately be labeled a terrorist if he's Middle Eastern, Black, or Hispanic, but if he's white, he was be excused as being a domestic terrorist and receive pity for being another unfortunate soul who had a mental breakdown
  • In another few days/weeks/months, another mass shooting will happen and the entire cycle will repeat itself all over again.
Still have yet to see Trump blame the Texas church shooting on Democrats, nor have I seen any or heard any of the Evangelicals blame the victims for not supporting Trump; but nevertheless, time to move on to our current NorCal shooting, so let's start the list again:

  • Republicans will offer their thoughts and prayers
  • Democrats will say thoughts and prayers are not enough and more action needs to be taken to prevent these shootings from continuing to happen
  • Republicans will attack Democrats for trying to politicize a tragedy for the sake of pushing anti-gun agendas
  • Democrats will attack Republicans for trying to politicize a tragedy for the sake of pushing pro-gun agendas
  • Trump will find some reason to blame the tragedy on Democrats while Pat Robertson and/or other Evangelicals will blame the victims for not supporting Trump
  • When the shooter is identified, he will immediately be labeled a terrorist if he's Middle Eastern, Black, or Hispanic, but if he's white, he was be excused as being a domestic terrorist and receive pity for being another unfortunate soul who had a mental breakdown
  • In another few days/weeks/months, another mass shooting will happen and the entire cycle will repeat itself all over again.
