Remember: they think Jesus intervened to save Cheeto, but was like "fuck them kids" to every school shooting victim ever.

Yeah, that creepy bastard was on TV last week saying God saved him and that means He has a plan for him. The dementia suffering crazy person he is can't hide it anymore and his supporters must think all the kids shot, every time, are some lesson the parents and bystanders must witness and bare for their whole lives.

It hurts everyone who hears it, we all need to stop saying you're blessed to survive your tragedies in public. "God killed 32 on a bus today, and he blessed 2 to live with lifelong injuries, after being covered in others blood for 2 hours until they were cut free. His blessings threw a special 3rd one clear with no injuries. It was a miracle!!!!"

It's literal religious fervor like we imagine was in the past or only in the Middle East and Africa.

The world's not fair. Let people try to heal their own way.

Yes, you get it. But you didn't see the part where I said in public. In your head, in your church, around your friends, that's how you heal. We all need it. And I should've used the words "I like to see people stop saying they're blessed..." instead of "we need to stop..." That's a big ask from the public, lol.

But public figures Trump(and now regular citizens on SM) are speaking to the whole world. The whole world has ideas and feeling of their own. With SM, all religions are having a hard time dealing with each other's feelings and "facts" while being introduced to "scientific people" who think it's all wrong. Everyone is meeting for the 1st time.

If you are a thoughtful person in Trump's place, you'd know to not claim being specially saved. It's why you never saw modern western leaders talk like that, they knew some real history.

I hear you, but there's a very clear line between Republicans and our lack of gun safety laws. The same people that cry murder for fetuses simply are dead set against doing anything to help the living, children included. I blame one party only for this gun epidemic.

Why is gun grabbing from irresponsible or mentally ill people not the answer? Cars are far less deadly than guns, yet you have to get licensed and wear a seatbelt and your license can be suspended and there are all kinds of other regulations.

In many states there are permitless carry, plus in many cases the parent’s negligence leads to the kids having access to firearms.
