is to promote fascism, and we're there now. The proliferation of guns has been this country's point of contention since I was in high school, over 50 yrs ago.

There is no "enough is enough." There's only "not enough." That's American culture.

children from their families. The only thing I will say is that perhaps these young survivors will grow up and reject wars and other violence.

The back story will be interesting. I do know two women with that kind of rage against the RCC, both even more ancient than I am so no threat, both survived the Magdalen Laundries in Ireland so they're entitled to ferocious rage.

However, that can't be the case here, so it will be interesting to find out what provoked this. Alas, we'll jprobably just get another spoonful of :mental health issues" Pablum to choike down.

However, if she was trans, it makes a lot of sense, the RCC has been especially cruel to transwomen.

Be nice if those old celibate men in dresses would admit they don't know a damned thing about gender issues and maybe get out of the sex business, completely. They have always been atrocious at it.
