When I was in school, Congress manufactured an energy to “protect” kids from, sure, tune lyrics (bipartisan, so everyone who claims “It was all Tipper & Dems!” GTFO). Point remaining: IF ONLY THE Exact Issue Once Demonstrated FOR “PROTECTING” Kids FROM Audio (??!) WAS Utilized TO ASSAULT WEAPONS These days

I see conflicting studies on the quantities but the totals really don’t matter. The reality that there was a taking pictures at an elementary university that harmed any young children is just disgusting and infuriating. What has occurred to men and women? How has humanity fallen so considerably? My soul aches with sorrow.
