Tonight, Beau of the Fifth Column put up one of his most scathing videos ever:
Let's talk about Texas, training, and too much…
(Find the three dot button to “Show transcript”.)
It is about HB1147 in the Texas Legislature, another horrific proposal to make kids do impossible, insane things because Texas Republican “adults” love their guns too much to keep Texas kids from being slaughtered.
Here are Beau’s final sentences in the video:
If you vote for this you never get to talk about a book in a library again.
If you think it is age appropriate for a third grader to learn how to apply a chest seal in the chance that they have to use it as they watch one of their classmates life drain from their eyes you do not get to complain about a book.
if we had a little bit more understanding, if we had a little bit more nurturing of creativity, If we spent more time on the things that matter instead of glorifying the violence maybe this wouldn't be a topic.
We have an issue in this country. -The fact that this is proposed shows we have two issues; one is the symptom of the other.
If you're a politician and you stand up there showing off your AR you're a part of the issue even if you vote to teach them how to plug the holes.
You're not owning the libs. You're owning your kids!
