Bernie Sanders is not in the minority as much as you may think in the Democratic Party. He got something like 40% of the vote in Az in the Democratic primary in 2020.

40% voted for him yes but actual Democrats who got elected how many would actually be considered left? 10?

Opinions such as a certain party in USA values guns more than children? Well if that ‘entrenches views’ then we haven’t got much hope have we?

I just asked the question because your post suggested to me that the days you were speaking about were in the week up to this occurrence, and I hadn't seen or heard any reference to them.

This will surely play right into the hands of the NRA and their supporters:

Woman bystander kills would-be attacker. Quote: "she's just a member of the community who was carrying her weapon lawfully," he said. "And instead of running from the threat she engaged with the threat and saved several lives."

The attacker was reportedly shot multiple times so it begs the question what kind of kind of gun this lady just happened to be carrying! Also I wonder if the response would have been a bit different if some of the shots had missed and hit another bystander?

What's is odd about this story is someone targeted 40 people with an assault rifle and there are no reports of injuries.

So it seems 19 armed 'good guys' with guns waited for around an hour before entering the school to get the 'bad guy' with a gun... How is that working out for the republicans? Fecks sake

Correction... some police officers DID enter the school before the large raid, to get their own children out, but left other peoples children.

America is sick and broken.

I live in a 'developing' country - we have huge problems, but compared to America I know which one is s "shit hole".

Nothing will happen!

The shooter in Uvalde bought two assault-style weapons just after his 18th birthday. He brought 48 magazines with him, accounting for 1,687 rounds of ammunition.
