Something most Rs aren’t so good at.
There’s been almost a MILLION killings since 1966??
And .001 percent were mass shootings.
Someone should tell Rs.
Guilty until you prove ourself not guilty

Excellent point. Kamala’s and Nanzi’s political kinsmen here in California have loosed hundreds if not thousands of violent felons upon the people of California.
