From Uvalde to Cleveland to Allen

From Uvalde to Cleveland to Allen

On May 24, 2022 nineteen children and two adults were killed at Robb Elementary School.

In less than one year fast forward to this week in Cleveland Texas where another mass shooting of  5 “illegal immigrants“ occurred, (These were  Governor’s words).    The reports indicate the shooter was an illegal, but it begs the question is “how did this individual obtain an assault weapon?”  Any body can get a gun in Texas, no questions asked.

Perhaps Mr. Oropresa borrowed the assault weapon from Rep. Lauren Boebert.

Perhaps a background check might  have alerted authorities that Mr. Oropesa was an illegal immigrant,  led to his arrest and perhaps, just perhaps saved five lives.

Unfortunately, another 8 people lost their lives to yet another mass shooting, this time in  Allen Texas and surprise, surprise another assault weapon.

The 14th Amendment is very clear:

“… nor shall any state deprive any person of life, liberty or property, without due process of law, nor deny to any person within its jurisdiction the equal protection of the law.”

The 34 individuals killed were denied life, the 34 individuals killed were denied liberty or property, the 34 individuals massacred were denied due process and were denied equal protection of the law.

Furthermore, the 14th Amendment says:

“Congress shall have power to enforce, by appropriate legislation, the provisions of this article.”

What is the Governor of Texas doing?  NOTHING.  What about Congress?   Crickets!!!

Food for thought as I am the dumb guy
