Is it bad that I'm so desensitized to these mass shootings that I'm just like, "oh another one. RIP innocents, fuck people who want to kill other people." As shitty as it is, it doesn't change anything. No new laws are going to get passed that make it harder to get high powered weaponry, or get people to take mental health more seriously in this country. People are just going to say a prayer for the deceased and their loved ones, the left is going to blame Congress for not doing anything, and the right is going to talk about how gun restrictions aren't going to solve anything (look at every city where guns are banned! it doesn't stop murders or anything). And life will go on until the next incident, when we'll repeat the cycle.
