You know who I feel bad for? The kids. Two of them. Perfectly innocent of all this.
They were victims of a school shooting in Colorado, in one of our nation's many, many, many school shootings, a subset of our nation's many many many mass shootings, a subset of our nation's many many many gun deaths. The two victims are in critical condition. The shooter, a young white man who had been "radicalized through an extremist network," killed himself. Many such cases.
Which kids did you think I meant?
Oh, also on the exact same day as the kids were shot by a radicalized white supremacist, Charlie Kirk was murdered in Orem, Utah. This was also a school shooting. Like I said, they are extremely common. I also feel bad for Kirk's kids, for what it is worth, though I think everyone else already has those bases thoroughly covered. Nevertheless I feel compelled to mention it, because if I don't, then it will be assumed by many that this must mean I am very glad that they watched their father Charlie Kirk be murdered horribly by a gun, as Charlie Kirk warned us might be necessary.
For the record, I am not glad about that.
