The Republican Vice Presidential nominee JD Vance said that school shootings were simply a “fact of life” after a shooting at a Georgia high school left four dead — the 45th school shooting in the United States so far this year.
The comments, made at an Arizona rally on Thursday, come after Vice President Kamala Harris and her running mate Tim Walz called for enhanced gun control measures in their own campaign rallies following the shooting.
“If these psychos are going to go after our kids we’ve got to be prepared for it,” Vance said, bucking a question asked on gun control measures and instead championing efforts to spend more on school security, per the Associated Press. “We don’t have to like the reality that we live in, but it is the reality we live in. We’ve got to deal with it.”
‘No Way To Prevent This,’ Says Only Nation Where This Regularly Happens
Fuck you, JD Vance.
Hey there’s a leader right here! We got problem and plan is let’s just accept it. Top people!

hes not wrong.
the 2nd amendment tax ( you know the one where people get to pretend human killing devices make them safer) requires dead children.
the price for your perceived safety in owning human killing devices is lots and lots of dead humans, especially children. but at least you feel safe, right?
You mean the 2nd Amendment that doesn’t literally say what the Supreme Court ruled it said in the 60s and 70s?
Damn, sure is a well regulated militia.
He’s right, but they don’t have to be! We can protect our children and fellow citizens with popular, common-sense gun reform and legislation supported by the majority of people across all political spectrums. We don’t have to bend over for the NRA (which has been proven to be funded by hostile foreign powers) and extremists. All it takes is courage and action…
Callous and weird. What a terrible combo.
