The front page of tomorrow's @dailytarheel. These are some of the text messages sent and received by University of North Carolina students during the Monday lockdown triggered by the shooting death of a teacher on campus.
Some stark realities of America in 2022: 🇺🇸 A day with a mass shooting is now more likely than a day without one. 🇺🇸 More children & teenagers have been killed/injured by gunfire than in any year since records began. 🇺🇸 Guns are the number one cause of death for children.
Researchers have estimated that if we still had a federal assault weapons ban, we would see 70% fewer mass shooting deaths. S-E-V-E-N-T-Y PERCENT. Reinstating it should be a no-brainer.
WE DON’T EVEN HAVE FUCKING TIME TO COPE WITH ONE MASS SHOOTING TRAGEDY BEFORE ANOTHER ONE HAPPENS. I CAN’T REMEMBER THEM OR WHEN THEY HAPPENED OR WHY. THIS IS CHAOS.
Our thoughts & prayers should be with the families and greater #Charlottesville community @GovernorVA. But thoughts & prayers are not plans or strategies for addressing gun violence. How about this…put some thought into a plan & we’ll pray you succeed. @shannonrwatts @MomsDemand

Democrats passed a gun law for the first time in 30 years and had one of the best midterms in 50 years. Pass it on.

This is a disturbing thread 🧵 Please read
Making abortion a felony when most states don’t allow felons to vote is effectively reversing the 19th Amendment.
Let’s be 100% clear. If Republicans win control of the House, Senate and White House two years from now, they will pass a national abortion ban. And no matter where you live, no matter how pro-choice your state is, women and doctors will be locked up for practicing health care.

“It’s just not about the people who are shot — either murdered or just shot," @Steven_Ballmer told @AP. "It’s about what that does to entire communities.” trib.al/fLd3JkP
Right now, there’s a bill in the Senate that would write Roe v. Wade into law. Let’s not wait any longer. Codify it. Pass the Women's Health Protection Act now.
THREAD: America’s gun violence crisis has been on full display in the past week; we’ve seen countless horrific acts of gun violence across the country, including at the hands of law enforcement.

Yes. How dare she *checks notes* fight for equality and for people to stop feeling entitled to players' bodies, bc women should just be grateful they're even allowed to play the game.
Sometimes I feel like I went to sleep and woke up in a deranged parallel universe, because how TF is a guy quoting Hitler and facing 91 felony counts a front runner for the presidency in a major political party? When did THOSE things become OK???
If it is indeed Biden vs. Trump in 2024, it will be America's sanity test.
I won’t stop working to keep families safe from gun violence—and that includes passing a national ban on assault weapons.
There have been 566 mass shootings this year alone. We cannot normalize this. Congress must have the courage to act and save lives.

Now do shooters. @MomsDemand #txlege huffpost.com/entry/texas-dr…
The choice we face as a nation is between the mainstream and the extreme, between allowing politicians to enter the most personal parts of our lives and protecting the right to privacy embedded in our Constitution. It's time for Congress to act.
