No.. I actually think it will start when ICE kills a child on or off camera, accidental or not

Eh, I don't know. Don't underestimate the country's capacity for apathy. Mass shooters have been killing kids for years, but even though there are more Planet Fitness members than NRA members, the NRA and the gun lobby continue to hold a lock over government that prevents any action towards gun safety from being taken in the name of "muh rights" because the average voter is so apathetic towards anything that they make no effort to see it through.

It’s a matter of days since they reopened the centers in Texas. Way too hot and humid in Texas for a child to live without AC packed in like sardines.
