Jimmy Kimmel on Elementary School Shooting in Uvalde, Texas

One of the best clearest videos on the issue of gun violence in the US and the reasons politicians won’t help.  He talks about how in the last three there were armed guards in the schools and the shootings still happened.   He talks about how gun control regulations / laws do work and gives examples.   He talks about the Republican Texas politicians.   Hugs

Jimmy responds to the tragic school shooting at Robb Elementary School in Uvalde, Texas, and talks about 89% of Americans wanting background checks, our cowardly leaders listening to the NRA instead of the people they actually represent, firearms becoming the #1 leading cause of death for American children and teens, Ted Cruz speaking at an NRA event this weekend, the 27 school shootings so far this year in America, and making sure that lawmakers do something about common-sense gun laws.

Israeli Snipers Intentionally Murdered Al Jazeera Journalist Shireen Abu Akleh

After interviewing multiple eye-witnesses and on-scene bystanders, a CNN report has concluded that Al Jazeera journalist Shireen Abu Akleh was purposefully shot by Israeli snipers. Almost 10 witnesses corroborated the same story about the sequence of events, saying that there was no gunfire prior to the sniper fire on Abu Akleh and her fellow journalists, with at least two witnesses saying they saw sniper rifles poking out of IDF vehicles towards the reporters.

“Several shots ring out in quick succession, cutting through a clear, blue spring morning in Jenin, in the West Bank. Crack, crack, crack, crack, crack, crack, crack. The cameraman filming the scene scrambles backwards to take cover behind a low concrete wall. Then a man cries out in Arabic: “Injured! Shireen, Shireen, oh man, Shireen! Ambulance!” When the camera operator pans around the corner, Al Jazeera journalist Shireen Abu Akleh can be seen lying motionless, face down on the ground as another Palestinian reporter, Shatha Hanaysha, crouches down beside her, using a tree trunk for cover. Hanaysha reaches out and tries to rouse her as gunshots continue. There’s no response. Both women are wearing helmets and blue protective vests marked “Press.” In the moments that follow, a man in a white T-shirt makes several attempts to move Abu Akleh, but is forced back repeatedly by gunfire. Finally, after a few long minutes, he manages to drag her body from the street. The shaky video, filmed by Al Jazeera cameraman Majdi Banura, captures the scene when Abu Akleh, a 51-year-old Palestinian-American was killed by a bullet to the head at around 6:30 a.m. on May 11. She had been standing with a group of journalists near the entrance of Jenin refugee camp, where they had come to cover an Israeli raid. While the footage does not show Abu Akleh being shot, eyewitnesses told CNN that they believe Israeli forces on the same street fired deliberately on the reporters in a targeted attack. All of the journalists were wearing protective blue vests that identified them as members of the news media.”

WOW: Furious Beto O’Rourke interrupts Greg Abbott’s press conference, SHREDS him, gets escorted out

For those hard of hearing some one in the crowd starts saying “GOP – Guns Of the People” and the crowd picks it up.   I had to struggle to understand what Beto was saying but he was saying it was on those in power on the stage, and at this political event where those Republicans are calling for more guns in schools, armed teachers, and chock points of access and exit, calling for making schools into prisons, one guys bellows “I cannot believe you come here to make this political, you sick son of a bitch”!   In other words the guy was saying don’t steal out thunder.   Hugs   

Furious NBA coach gives MUST-SEE response to shooting, STORMS OFF

He says 50 Senators more interested in holding on to their own power than they care about our children won’t even allow a vote on the background legislation (HR8 that 90% of US public wants approved) that has been sitting there for two years from the House.   Republicans have shown they can pass bills outlawing LGBTQ+ books and what they think is CRT when they want.   They could pass this if they wanted to save the kids.   Hugs
