…because we’ve been here before. Ten innocent people murdered this morning at a rural high school southeast of Houston; the sociopath responsible now in custody; flaccid platitudes proffered by complicit politicians all day long…

Again.
…is the 16th school shooting this year that resulted in injury or death.
Yes, it happened. Again.
It was the deadliest attack on an American school campus since February…

Yes, it happened. Again.
…a man wearing a “Make America Great Again” hat, carrying a handgun, had arrived at the school as the reporters had, to give interviews holding forth on the Second Amendment, and to explain how the best solution to school violence was more guns.

Four Fridays later, their school was attacked.
Yes, it happened. Again.
