I woke up after sleeping three hours last night, and I could not get back to sleep. I feel exhausted.

Short Take:
From, YouTube (MSNBC Channel): Beto O’Rourke Calls For Gun Control, Says We Need To Confront Hate
I pray, but that is not enough. We need gun control. We need more resources targeting white nationalists, and we need to put racist Republican politicians into unemployment lines. RESIST!!

MSNBC: 2 mass shootings, w/in 15 hours, 29 dead. All of the Dems that I have watched, have had the same remarks re: these tragedies, and senseless murders. We certainly need gun control. Cancel the recess and vote for this important issue.
Hi, Wendy. Hard at work, I see. Moving is hard, and tiring, I agree. I like the blinds you have for your window, too. Get your rest, and take good, good care. Thanks, Tom.

Our “great” country is dying of lead poisoning. Two mass shootings within hours of each other, 29 dead and dozens more wounded – how much blood must flow, how many funerals must take place until our cowardly government finally grows a spine and stands up to the Nazis Ruling America – who do not represent the interests of gun owners, but the greed of arms manufacturers?
8:42 The dark side.
Both he and Leningrad Lindsey are in the Russell SOB, and here are two home state addresses in case it might be better to localize the attention – I couldn’t resist copying the one in Bowling Green because of course I couldn’t.
Federal Building
241 E. Main Street, Rm. 102
Bowling Green, KY 42101
508 Hampton Street, Suite 202
Columbia, SC 29201
MSNBC – Ideally we should address both of those problems simultaneously. But if we have to address one first, I vote for white nationlist terroristds. Timothy McVeigh didn’t need no stinkin’ guns.
Cartoon – Oh, STFU, phony Jesus!
Beto’s answer to the Trump culpability question is spot on! This is the first time I personally have heard a public figure call him out so directly, and I respect Beto for not hedging in his answer. Trump is guilty of being an accessory before the fact. The insecurity and hate was there, has been a part of this “exceptional” country for virtually ever, before he came on the scene, but he inflames it, the GOP inflames it, because they have nothing other than hatred and greed to champion!
The president is a cultural leader, does not just sign administrative stuff, and so on, and this POS is leading us right into “Shithole” glory! Ironically, now we need someone to help us actually “Make america Great Again,” you know, sort of like what it was 3 years ago.

Thank you, Pat:

Over the last 21/2 years we have referred to the Dunning-Krueger Effect, yes? well, I just earlier today came across a meme that relates to that, and the Dumpy supporters:
“The forest was shrinking but the trees kept voting for the axe because its handle was made of wood and they thought it was one of them.”
UPDATE: Moscow Mitch fell and broke his shoulder.
Fortunately the “leadership” of Twitler has provided us the appropriate response:
TOO BAD!
Couldn’t have happened to a nicer turtle – er, guy.
Jaw would have been better.
Cranium would have been better still.
That’ll work!
5:00 Checkmate?
I think we were all waiting for the next bloodshed, inspired by the ranting of a demented “leader” who’ll say anything to have a crowd adore him and is too far gone to acknowledge the consequences, or worse, couldn’t give a 💩.
But it looks like some people around him have taken his phone away for the day and put out some templates for him. They don’t even bother to sound like anything Trump would normally say.
The second shooting was 13 hours after the first, bringing the possibility to mind that the attention given to the first one triggered the second unstable mind, looking for an excuse to kill himself “by cop”, going down in a bullet-hail of glory. Apparently his sister was among the people he killed.
Very SAD to hear of these 2 mass senseless shootings. We do need GUN CONTROL NOW. Agree with so many above that the senate needs to call off their vacations and get their as*es back in there and do something about getting GUNS BANNED NOW.
Glad things are getting taken care of there at your new place.
Two of my PC’s were acting up today. I honestly thought they were done. Neither one was starting up properly.
I had to replace the CMOS battery in one. The other one needed updates. After pushing the F4 key to get then rolling.
They both have Windows 7. Love the way they seems to have problems when we least expect it.
Puzzle — 6:34 Well bless me! I’m well under the average. Chess is not my game.
MSNBC — These attacks (El Paso, California and Dayton) are clearly cases of domestic terrorism. In an article in Daily Kos,
From The Daily Beast quoted in the same Daily Kos article,
The Trump administration, IMO, has tied the hands of those who could make a difference in identifying and fighting domestic terrorism.
I agree with Beto that strict gun control is needed. But I also agree with you Puddy Tat that dealing with the hatred is needed even more. The first step, get rid of the asshole resident in the WH and all Republicans in Congress.
Cartoon — Deport all Republicans and far right extremists!
Howdy, TC. I’ve been offline for a while. Seems things have changed a bit since I’ve been on here. Or on C2. I’ll have to save the addy for here so I can find it. Sorry I haven’t checked in lately.
Hopefully i can check in more from now on. Check my name on Facebook.
Take care! Love y’all, Vivian!
