A photo reported to be a desperate mother running shoeless to the Minnesota school where the shooting took place. I can't look at it without the tears streaming down my face. Imagine the horror, folks. What is wrong with us as a nation, as a people?? #guncontrolnow #guncontrol

What's wrong is the spineless GOP that won't do anything to ban assault weapons or institute stiffer gun ownership laws. In fact they are all about crime and freeing murderers, assaulters, sexual abusers, and more. This whole National Guard thing is a stunt—total BULLSHIT. THE GOP SUCKS!!!!!!!!

Id love to see the % if Democrat voters who would be ok to ban guns... I feel it would be very low.

Majorities Still Back Stricter Gun Laws, Assault Weapons Ban share.google/zs2uJ430odlx... Stiffer gun laws and banning guns are entirely different things. Banning salt weapons is widely popular.

As an outsider to the US, I believe this to no longer be a Republican vs Democrat issue. The thoughts and action of people/politicians is beyond political partisanship. This is pure greed and power and not what society needs.

Take heart in knowing that there are still many in the US and the world who are becoming awake to these tragedies and it may take some time but what makes us truly human will rise again within us. I hope

Yes tears run down my face as well, the horror is real. It's easy to answer your question, as a nation of people the US has become in a word "INHUMAN". All that makes humanity special and unique is being stripped from your collective souls. Greed is the Mantra, & self interest. IMO the world also

I can't look at it w/o thinking "there but for the grace of the universe go I" I can't imagine being a parent to school-aged children or teacher these days. My middle child was a teacher but left the profession a while back. How awful that her leaving gave me a bit of peace of mind.
