I see that The Onion has not yet updated the article yet

It's still stuck on last week's settings.

FFS, it's only been a week hasn't it. This is the advantage of my life-induced enforced semi media break. I barely notice little things like mass shootings. But my mother asked what the heck was going on, so I looked it up, and immediately nearly vomited as the first article was about some GOP pig going on about how we can't "reflexively" do gun control.

So I still don't much know what happened, and that's okay, I don't really want to!

But quite seriously, sooner or later we're all going to get collectively fed up with the gun nuts stonewalling every reasonable, sensible gun control legislation and just say "fuck it". Is this really what they want? Because if so, we might as well just say "fuck it" now and, idk, put a dent in the sheer number of mass shootings.

I mean, if you enacted actual gun control, then white men wouldn't be able to kill anyone they wanted to at will and escape the consequences that would be put on any other person if they did the same thing. And then we'd have anarchy, because then it might be true that white men had to obey the law.
