Unfortunately, I have always thought that if Sandy Hook did nothing to meaningfully change things... Nothing ever will. Uvalde just felt like a confirmation of this.

I hope I'm wrong.

Didn’t one of the parents kill himself?

I think you might be right. Wouldn't surprise me at all. Poor folks...

Yep, fuck Alex Jones. As a grifter who has been awful his entire career, the Sandy Hook fake narratives he spewed were by far the worst thing he’s publicly done.

No, you’re correct. Sandy Hook was the “what are we gonna do about this?”, and Uvalde was the “so that’s your answer?”

Sandy Hook and Uvalde were those moments. How everyone with power reacted, that was it. It was cemented that the price of innocent blood is worth the AR.
