We are the only developed country where mass shootings happen on a regular basis. It doesn’t have to be this way.

Kennedy has got to go. OUT. He needs fired IMMEDIATELY.

He is putting out entire country at risk.

This would be funny if it weren’t so Goddamnes sad.

Shuler: Next Monday is not just Labor Day—it’s the start of Labor Week. Marches, rallies, and trainings: hundreds of thousands of working people coming together from this coming weekend to next, kicking off the single biggest year of action from now until next Labor Day

Shuler: They want to convince people that we are each other’s enemies—that we need to fight one another to land a good job, to find a home in a safe neighborhood, that only so many of us can live with dignity at the same time.

But we are not each other’s enemies. We are each other’s neighbors

Mark this day as the death of expertise at the CDC.

All we have between us and the next pandemic are a bunch of horse paste eating conspiracy loons.

I dare you to go to Annunciation School and tell our grieving community, in effect, guns don’t kill kids, antidepressants do.

Just shut up. Stop peddling bullshit. You should be fired.

If someone tells you there's nothing we can do about gun violence beyond thoughts and prayers, remind them:

—Gun laws in other countries have prevented mass shootings
—More guns don't make us safer
—A majority of Americans want gun reform

We don't have to live like this.

NBC News Chicago headline: 5th grader says friend saved him before getting shot in Minneapolis church shooting

It shouldn't be up to American children to save each other from getting shot.

It's the job of American adults to stop shootings from happening in the first place.

A friend said earlier today that Fury Road "has no plot" which is, you know, patently not true, but it also got me thinking: the core conceit of the movie is that you can't escape oppression by running away to a utopia, you have to fight it head-on, tooth and nail, and kill it where it lives.

RULE ABOUT AMERICAN FLAGS:

If you burn the fabric part, you're looking at jail.

But it you use the pole part to assault a police officer, you get a presidential pardon, praise, and some cash.

Never before in our history has one man exercised such unbridled discretion affecting the lives of so many of us, while simultaneously preventing others — Congress, the courts, the American people — from having a say or even knowing what he’s going to do next.

This is what dictatorship looks like.
