School in a red state... isn't that just home"school"ing? Picture still applies, though.

[–] dustyData@lemmy.world 2 points 1 day ago

Someone fact check me, but I remember reading that in death by firearms of minors, school shootings are second only to home accidents. Poorly secured arms and children without supervision is a bad combination.

Then have it followed up by 'them' also destroying the monument after the fact

For starters... /s...holy crap y'all are weird.

Second, I'm referencing people in red states that typically destroy the roadside vigils, or memorials for people who were murdered.

Y'all are weird as fuck..downvote away though. Act before understanding what you're doing. Looks good on ya

Imagine being so stupid you get angry at imaginary problems.

What are you talking about. Roadside memorials for people who were murdered have 100% been destroyed by maga people...

Try to understand something, before you act on it..please. This is my issue with ALL of humanity and one of the major reasons why I don't socalize with anybody anymore. Good riddance

A different way of putting it....the ones who insult the kid in the top photo, would also be the same ones who would destroy app the flowers for the slain kids in the bottom photo.

The issue is that nobody has ever heard of anyone destroying roadside memorials. There is no comparison because it isn't a thing.

[–] Fiivemacs@lemmy.ca 1 points 1 day ago

I've literally seen videos of people kicking candles over, smashing photos and ripping flowers before fleeing in their pickup truck, but ok.

[–] Theprogressivist@lemmy.world 3 points 2 days ago* (last edited 2 days ago) (1 children)

I read the "them" statement as you pinning it as the top photo kids being the ones destroying the memorial. Plain and simple, I thought you were a maga asshole. There was no way of understanding what you were really saying with your vague statement. My bad.

For sure NOT supportive of their ideology. Everyone deserves a good life. I understand my comments may not come across clear and it's something I need to work on.
