    It’s a go-to deflection by one poster for police behaving badly and shootings so…

    I have no rage left for this issue. Congratulations, NRA. You win. You broke me.

    Nothing will ever change to fix this. And gun manufacturers will continue to count their billions.

    The phrase "including toddler" sent me over the edge and brought tears. Not that ANYONE should get shot, mind you. But I have three granddaughters now who are toddlers. Well, two and the oldest is a full-fledged little girl.

    I simply can't imagine.

    Honestly shocked this doesn’t happen more often. This is what these idiots don’t understand:

    1) they don’t have the training to effectively put down a threat without hurting themselves or innocents

    2) cops responding to an active shooter after looking for an active shooter and aren’t going to ask questions. If you have a gun, they are going to put you down.

    Sounds like this might have been the three people involved just firing until they hit the other, but it still stands. Use a gun to defend yourself but don’t be a hero.
