Jones asked the real question at the NRA convention to a reporter. How many people will show up to protest black kids being shot down in Chicago with some of the most restrictive gun laws in the country!
A @CNN reporter sought to portray the millions of members of the @NRA as responsible for what happened in Texas.

I asked him why his network never seems to show up for the hundreds of children gunned down in Chicago every other weekend?
With the strictest gun laws in the WORLD? pic.twitter.com/t57EbPE6Ri
The school shooting. Another divisive issue. Another "divider" between city/rural & dem/rep...the perfect distraction at a moment of economic pain.

The school shooter benefited from normalcy bias with regard to school lockdowns...
Seems like the local officials are about to dump the blame for this thing back on the federal govt.
One against many. How did this guy get separated from his unit?
Geez. This is intense. I hope we learn his name. His stand is worthy of the history books.Insane.

NATO multinational battlegroup in Romania gets to work
French and Polish forces deployed to Romania as part of the new NATO multinational battlegroup have been hard at work, training with Allies while demonstrating a robust deterrence presence in the eastern part of the Alliance.
Following Russia’s unprovoked invasion of Ukraine, NATO reinforced its presence in the eastern part of the Alliance, establishing new multinational battlegroups in Bulgaria, Hungary, Romania and Slovakia. This decision is part of a package of measures aimed to strengthen NATO’s deterrence and defence posture in light of the changed security environment. France leads the NATO multinational battlegroup in Romania.
The gravity of the moment is not lost on the soldiers, several of whom said that it makes otherwise ordinary training exercises feel more significant.
