Will It EVER Be About the Guns?

Between severe weather rocking rural Mississippi, Alabama and even part of Georgia and today's mass school shooting in Nashville, Georgia legislative chicanery took a backseat for a bit. Last week, the United Nations IPCC report - a pretty conservative commission, by the way - gave us a dire outlook. Can we correlate these "historic" tornado events? Well, it's not easy to but it's hard to ignore them in conjunction with all the other climate extremes being seen throughout the world. Then - oh look - another mass schooting at an American school. One 28-year old Audrey Hale - allegedly a trans woman - brought two assault rifles and a handgun, using them to kill three children, two teachers and a custodian. Some will make this about the school - a Presbyterian private school. Others will make it about the alleged killer being trans. For those folks it's N-E-V-E-R about the guns. Here, until the guns are addressed with meaningful legislation, we'll keep reminding 'em. We'll bounce around on some Georgia stuff, too, no doubt; like our Lt. Governor, penning an op-ed while wholly lacking in self-awareness when it comes to healthcare & "special interests."
