I don't have to assume, they make it known how fucking dumb they are on a regular basis (aka, every time there's a school shooting)

"That idea of armed guards, or armed teachers, as a solution to gun violence often seems to come up in the wake of mass shootings, echoing National Rifle Association chief Wayne LaPierre's long-touted notion that “the only way to stop a bad guy with a gun is with a good guy with a gun.”
LaPierre famously made those remark after the Sandy Hook school shooting in 2012 that killed 20 children and six school staff, and reiterated it in February after the shooting at a Parkland, Florida, high school that left 17 dead"
Don't trip over your big ol' clown shoes there, friend.
That stuff about school shootings has nothing to do with me. I do have some long feet but I wear regular types of shoes in large sizes rather than ones made for clowns.
I'll make sure to specify in all of my future comments that are not addressed to you that they are not addressed to you. Will that help you to understand how anonymous social media works?
Herpity derpity durr, snarky comment. Great contribution to the Fediverse.
Said with zero self reflection. <3
