Jack of Harts

I am proud and disgusted right now.

I am proud of the parent who followed that little bastard into the school and shot it before it could kill any more kids.
I am proud of the teacher who protected her students with everything she had and died doing it.
I am sorrowful over the murdered children. They were truly children, the one group of people in American we should spend everything we have to protect.
I am completely and utterly disgusted by the craven piece of shit politicians who made it illegal to defend those children with real weapons and therefore made that teacher’s death inevitable when someone came into her school with a gun to kill her students.
I feel guilty, because my first instinct is to wish those craven pieces of shit politicians who voted to make certain those children were an easy target for any gunman had been in that very same room instead of those kids and that teacher because I want them to have been the ones who faced the consequences of their actions, not the teacher and the students.

It is possible to feel all of that in this moment, and I absolutely do.
