"Republicans were so busy protecting children from learning that Rosa Parks was black that they forgot to protect them from being murdered in their classrooms." ~JEFF TIEDRICH

In 2022, Brian Kemp, the Governor of Georgia, signed Senate Bill 312, which allows anyone to walk into a gun store in Georgia,
buy a gun, and go anywhere they want with it, no training needed, no permit necessary, no questions asked. Sounds pretty "well regulated" amirite?? Facepalm...

What could go wrong?

13 mass shootings in Georgia in the first eight months of 2024. They couldn't even make it through one day of school without a mass shooting.

Murder rates in red states are 33% higher than in blue states.
Contributing factors:
Higher gun ownership rates in red states.
Less restrictive gun laws: Red states often have more permissive gun laws, making it easier to acquire and carry firearms.
Blue states are more likely to have bans or restrictions on assault-style weapons and high-capacity magazines. Red states generally do not have such restrictions.
Higher poverty rates in red states, Lower educational attainment in red states.
Underinvestment in social services and policing: Despite rhetoric about being "tough on crime," red states often spend less per capita on both
social services and law enforcement compared to blue states.

"This is your heartless Republican Party, folks. They’ll force a ten-year-old to give birth to her stepfather’s rape-baby, but they won’t do one single thing to
keep children from getting shot to death in their schoolrooms." ~JEFF TIEDRICH
