This is what communities are about. It isn't knuckle dragging morons disrespecting the flag to spread hate, it is people like Crystal Clean Windows. We saw it after the riots last year. The far right are not representative of local communities. H/t to @ottoenglish.bsky.social for the original post.

As kids return to school, another mass shooting has stolen young lives. Children shouldnāt fear their classrooms. Teachers shouldnāt risk their lives. Parents shouldnāt wonder if their kids will come home. We are the only country with more guns than peopleāand this is the devastating result.
