The complete failure of authority, from the school counselors to the fucking FBI, to nip Parkland in the bud was what convinced me to get a gun. Because fuck entrusting my safety to these government-employed chucklefucks.

Oh, and to put the shit cherry on top, Parkland already had several deputies already at the scene for whatever reason. When what's-his-face starting shooting, the cowards from Broward decided to duck behind their cop cars until the shooter ran out of ammo, and even barred fucking EMT from going in.

"You don't need a gun, the cops will save you," my hairy ass!
