    Conservatives won’t stop standing in the way of progressive gun control until school shootings become a national attraction.

    “Hey look kids! A school shooting! So glad we took this vacation to rural America!”

      They won’t do it until one of their kids is a victim and suddenly it affects them personally. And even then, only one vote will change.

      That’s their M.O. They don’t care when their policies are actively hurting other people so long as they aren’t affected.

          All kids are victimized but most conservatives don’t care until it’s their kid specifically. Kind of like most political issues that people who have empathy care about.

            So conservatives don’t care if the children of liberal parents are victims?

                If you honestly believe that you are so full of hate your judgement is off.
