The Republicans are helpless.

The Republicans won't help prevent another school shooting. They are helpless. They shrug their shoulders and let the NRA do the talking. They cannot even talk about enforcing the laws we have already. They can't.

We will have more school shootings. More mall shootings. More innocents dying. And the Republicans will come out and assure the citizens that the Second Amendment means we must allow these things to happen. We cannot do anything about it but shrug our shoulders and go, "Oh well..." We cannot compare ourselves to other countries who have more guns but less deaths. We cannot ask questions about why we must allow assault rifles to be sold to mentally ill people, why we can't have ID checks, waiting periods, markers on bullets, safety locks, mandatory safety classes. We cannot question the Republicans.

Because they are helplessly hopelessly unable to answer.
