Listening to this little boy talk about how his friend saved him from the shooter by laying on top of him broke my heart. All the good and bad in humanity in one sentence.

I wish I knew what to do. I keep signing petitions and calling representatives but I don’t see any change.

In no other country does this shit happen to this degree. It's nonsense to say it's unfixable.

No words, just RAGE 😡 💔

😢😢😢😢😢

Another day, another shooting. Children dead and injured. Why is there never enough white-hot burning rage about this? I don't want to hear Democrats telling us that their "hearts go out..." etc, etc, etc. I want to hear them screaming "ENOUGH OF THIS FUCKING SHIT!!!!" at the top of their lungs.

Exactly!!
-
Children should never have to deal with this.
-
So matter of fact, what are we doing to our kids
-
But the whiny members of the Anti-American Fascist Party say “it’s my 2nd amendment right” to kill children

You know who wouldn’t jump on top of a 5th grader to shield them from a bullet???
DONALD J. TRAITOR

Greater love has no person than this, that they would lay down their life for their friend.
-
Ain't no one gonna say this kid ain't a fucking kid for all times sake. The bearer of bad news in me though, mark your calendars. Trump absolutely might steal this.

I feel like this is what keeps us from not going all out ballistic against guns. For the record, I am a gun owner. All of mine are in the security of my parents, as I don't have either the space or need.
The deaths were not caused by politics. They were caused by the government killing people.

Pres. Trump Signs Mass Shooting Bill, Touts "Ratings Bonanza" - Political Americans: Satire for Defending Democracy
President Trump signs a bill absolving his office and law enforcement from having to make statements after mass shootings.

Me, too. I am rarely drawn to tears during these [frequent!) interviews, but this one tore me up.
-
I can remember when mass shootings were very rare (Less than one a year). Now the U.S. average almost two per day. So many that most go unreported by the media. The GOP & NRA are responsible for mass shootings becoming so passe (normalized), due to a really fucked up sense of priorities.
-
Brave boy indeed, but it just should not come to this, obviously. Profit is more important than children.

I ❤️ Victor

I’m verklempt

Me too. He was also asked if they do shooter drills. He answered yes, once a month but never in the church.
So since nothing is ever done about gun control I guess you just add drills in the church.
Unbelievable .

Fuck this country for making an 11 year old use their body as a shield to protect a fellow 11 year old against mass shootings. Folks have no souls. This kinda shit is proof that god doesn’t exist and folks are only religious in order to punish and control others.

Broke me

RealNews: Donald Trump pledges to make the subways of Democratic cities safe. He has the National Guardsmen cleaning the streets of Washington, D.C.
Next up, .... no, not Minneapolis, something else.

Far too often, the young tell us TRUTH, while we discount it because of their age. This experience will live in this boy's memory forever and we will forget…
-
I saw that sweet kid on the news last night and just lost it. I hate where we are right now.
-
A Great Day... Not to be an American...
-
😢❤️😢❤️ this should not continue to be happening here in our country! What “civilized” society has this fetish with guns other than the US? The GOP wants to “regulate” every damn thing except frikking guns!
-
I'm Canadian and I don't understand how an 11 year old even knows to do this. This child shouldn't have to be a hero. It's the job of adults to keep children safe.
-
Been on lockdown during Sandy Hook. It is terrifying leaves fears & scars & I am a retired educator. Imagine the images swirling around the heads of these survivors. CHANGE GUN LAWS
-
News services played and replayed this child‘s interview and all I could think is how numb he seemed ahead of the huge traumatic crash he and his family will be suffering over the days and months ahead. Brave, yes. Coping? For now? What the hell has our gun policy made this child endure?
-
Something I'll never understand is that we've always had a pretty robust gun culture, and other countries similarly have permissible norms regarding guns, yet this is a uniquely American phenomenon to happen so regularly and rather recent. Why? What's changed?
-
Ugh, this just made me cry..it’s beyond the pale how screwed up we are as a country, it feels like we have bastardized & twisted the meaning of things to the Nth degree
-
All the more reason to put guns in kids' hands.
-
kids have tp protect each other politicians won't.
-
Faux Christianity breeds hate. That hate victimizes others and the hate is returned. God's commandment is to love one another! Christians chikdten ate paying for the sins of their fathers
-
These are the heroes period end of story full stop You just can’t imagine having to do that as a grade school child This is a broken society
-
😭💔
-
Listening to a 10 year old refer to a friend who laid on top of him in a school shooting in a civilised country as "he got hit" is some twisted sick shit! WAKE UP AMERICA! #PedophilePOTUS #Felon47 #ThePedophileProtectionParty They are destroying your Country!
-
This can be stopped. This is just one example of how shitty the gop is. this times one thousand.
-
Why are 5th graders expected to save their friends when we should be DEMANDING reform from elected officials? If we pass no meaningful gun control this will just keep happening and 5th graders will be expected to save us all
END THE NRA
