God has a twisted sense of humor: guns and grandmas edition

 First a beloved Friend RantWoman refers to as Grandma FF sent RantWoman the following link via the Seattle Times:

3 things to do if you are in an active shooter situation

The biggest items that stuck with RantWoman relate to being around people who can't necessarily take steps to get away. RantWoman really, really, really would prefer never to need to think in further detail about this entire topic. RantWoman imagines she is supposed to thank the likes of the next grandma served up by the algorithms for her generous contributions to the need to do so.


Since RantWoman was letting Mr. JAWS the screen reader wander over other links after the article, the miracles of modern algorithms pointed RantWoman to this fascinating item by an actual gun-toting grandma.

Article linked in the Seattle Times about Lauren Boebert's "forgiveness" tour

Blind readers: there is a lovely photo gallery with captioned photos including two photos that feature Rep. Boebert's now 6-month-old grandson. Based on RantWoman's bad eyes, GRandma Boebert does not appear to be packing heat. It MIGHT though still occur to RantWoman to wonder what CO child welfare considerations are about guns around babies.

RantWoman is just going to leave this here for now. There are many family soap operas to hold in the Light. RantWoman's first temptation is to be a judgmental bitch about toting a grandchild around as a prop. RantWoman also hopes that anyone with an unintended / unplanned pregnancy also is blessed with a doting grandma to help about childcare and support for AT LEAST getting a high school diploma. If RantWoman gets REALLY carried away, she indulges that lived experience will somehow translate into contributions in relevant policy areas.
