Mass shooting at a Kroger Marketplace in Louisville, Kentucky. |
GUN VIOLENCE IS THE NUMBER ONE THREAT IN THE UNITED STATES.
There was a shooting inside a Kroger marketplace in metro Louisville.
The community of Jeffersontown is inside the Louisville-Jefferson County metroplex. The home rule city is apart of the Louisville metro area. The city has 3,400 residents. Louisville as a whole has a population of 743,000 residents. It is the largest city in the commonwealth of Kentucky.
Another mass shooting in the United States. This time it was at a Kroger in metro Louisville. The suspect was caught. Who takes the blame?
Kroger employees told the junk food media that someone went into the store and started shooting.
An unarmed security guard helped rush people out of the store.
Kroger issued a statement saying it is saddened by the shooting. The store will remain closed until the FBI, Jeffersontown and Louisville Metro Police conclude their investigation.
As expected, we will hear the phony sympathy issued by folks like Donald J. Trump, Mike Pence, Gov. Matt Bevin, Mitch McConnell and Rand Paul. They will say they offer their "thoughts and prayers" and "their hearts going out to."
The state allowed mass shooters into our schools and libraries. The only way for us to prevent gun violence is "thoughts and prayers" and "my heart going out to" cliches.
I am tired of "thoughts and prayers." They won't heal the wounded. They won't bring back the dead.
I am tired of politicians telling us that "now isn't the time to talk about gun violence."
I am tired of politicians and media agitators on the right acting condescending around Black people. I don't think it's their place to tell me how to raise my child or how to live my life. I thought they were all about "freedom."
The terrorist who shot those innocent lives had probably purchased the firearm legally. So don't give me that bullshit about illegal firearms. Kentucky is an open carry state and you have a lawful right to carry. Once you use a firearm in a criminal act, that voids your Second Amendment right.
Are you going to vote?
VOTE EARLY.
VOTE ABSENTEE BALLOT.
VOTE NOVEMBER 6, 2018.
Restore sanity to the country. Under Trump, people of color are suffering. With white people calling the law on Black people minding their business, it appears infuriating that we allow our lawmakers to continue to justify this.
The Republicans are using the same old tired playbook given to them by Rush Limbaugh, Sean "Softball" Hannity, The Drudge Report, Fox News and Breitbart. They are fully engaged in the culture war.
They will not address gun violence in the United States. About 94 people are killed a day by gun violence. We are going to see more of these events happen if the Republicans continue to hold control of Congress. They have been embolden by special interest and the National Rifle Association.
Instead of talking about the economy, the demise of Sears/Kmart, gun violence, the continuous Brett Kavanaugh hearing or the failure to fix immigration. They rather get you upset over comments made by entertainers and opinion agitators. The Republican Party is accepting white extremism within its ranks.
The Republican Party has control of the White House, Congress, state governorships and the junk food media. Why are they complaining about the obstruction from the Democrats?
They control almost everything.
They are hoping that we forgot that all three branches of government are controlled by Republicans. You can't blame the Democrats when you control the keys to the car. You can't blame the Democrats when you're in charge of an agenda.
They want to ignore the fact that they've failed to govern during the budget resolutions. They were responsible for passing legislation that hurts the middle class, farmers and small business owners.
The Republicans forgot that they were the ones who shut down the government. The Republicans had a majority of House and Senate lawmakers. How come it's the Democrats fault when a handful of "Freedom Caucus" members stalled legislation to fund the government?
They were the ones who supported the removal of children from immigrants crossing the border. Yeah, explain that to people who vote Republican and speak in languages other than English. Using our military to protect the border is really stupid. The military will not shoot and kill innocent human beings. The Immigration and Customs Enforcement and U.S. Border Patrol will do the work for them. Besides, building a damn wall will cost billions. People who are crossing the border often come from the airplanes. And building a wall will result in drug cartels building tunnels that go below the ground in the United States and at least five miles into the Mexico.
The Republicans are the ones who oversee the demise of Sears/Kmart and retail in general. Toys R Us, Bon Ton, Mattress Firm, HH Greg and other retail companies have fallen. The CEOS and shareholders pocket millions while those who worked get a few paychecks to pay their bills and feed their families. Tell a constituent that that Republican tax break gave your company's CEO a super yacht.
Yeah, showing up on television screaming Nancy Pelosi and Chuck Schumer isn't going to work. They don't represent your constituents. You can't scare monger your constituents with fears of Pelosi hiding under the bed. Stop talking about Pelosi and worry about your district or state.
They forgot that under Republican control, the FCC repealed net neutrality repeal. Social media will not relinquish the fact that Republican allowed it to happen.
Republican lawmakers continuous decision to repeal the Affordable Care Act will only result in failure. No one supports private hospitals charging thousands of dollars to treat someone with pre-existing conditions. You going to tell a constituent that the company they work for will no longer provide insurance.
They won't if we don't get our asses out to vote this Midterm. The price is too great to allow Trump continue the course he's going.
The Republicans are going to win on the culture war. We can stop them if we get off our asses and vote this Midterm election.
