No child should have to worry about being shot at school or gunned down at a birthday party.
It doesn’t matter if they’re in a red or blue state.
It doesn’t matter who their parents are.
If the volume of mass shootings doesn’t enrage you, you’ve lost your way.

The issue is not who the two survivors were affiliated with, but their status at the moment force was used. Under the laws of armed conflict, status of mortality and status of incapacitation determine whether a person is a lawful target.

Tennessee farmers are being screwed daily due to policies implemented by Donald Trump's administration, particularly the tariffs on China which killed Tennessee soybean sales, leading to low prices and losses.

Don’t forget LBJ and the war on poverty. If the Dems could just divorce themselves from wall street and dirty money, grow a spine and a set of cajones, and walk the walk, that’d be super.

No child, absolutely no child, should die, especially from senseless gun violence. It’s upsetting and tragic that this country hasn’t figured out how to stop this.
My heart is with the city of Stockton right now because a parent shouldn’t have to come home without their child tonight.

The Beauty of sunsets
Sunsets are more than beauty; they’re transitions. Light softens, colours deepen, and the world exhales. Each one teaches patience, presence, and reflection. Capture not the scene, but the feeling, an honouring of time passing, a reminder you were there.
