We live in a country where a woman can be raped, forced to give birth, and then have the child slaughtered before his/her 8th birthday, in a school where they’re not allowed to say the word “gay”, by a person who legally bought multiple semi-automatic rifles with no concern about their background or mental health. This is America. Never, ever say to me again that politics don’t matter or that they’re all “two sides of the same coin”. YOUR PRAYERS DON’T WORK. YOUR THOUGHTS DON’T HELP.
