A shooter opened fire Wednesday morning during Mass at a Minneapolis Catholic school, killing two children and injuring 17 other people before killing himself, officials said.

Minneapolis Police Chief Brian O’Hara said the shooter — armed with a rifle, shotgun and pistol — approached the side of the church and shot through the windows toward the children sitting in the pews during Mass at the Annunciation Catholic School.

In a plot twist a Fox News anchor suddenly started advocating for gun control.

But really though, with America on its full Fascism course, this seems like the absolute worst time to advocate for gun control. Just take the school shootings for granted at this point.

I hear this a lot from all sides, but how do people actually think civilians with guns are going to fare against government enforcers who would inevitably be better armed? They never tell us that part.
