Sgt. Mike Ernster — a spokesman for the St. Paul police — said that his department received a call around 8:40 a.m. that a child had brought a gun to school, but that, “Thankfully, no one was hurt.”

At least no one died, this time. How many children must die before something will be done? How many years will the deaths of over 30,000 people be just a cost of doing business? The insane gun fetish of Americans is killing innocent people and the Republican Party and the NRA have that blood on their hands.

But they are “pro-life” so that counts for something, right?

They are pro-fetus, but anti-life and definitely anti-humanity.
