If Republicans tell you not to talk about guns today, that’s fine.
They aren’t just ok with guns.
They’re okay with each ambulance ride costing at least 1,300, out of pocket, even if a survivor has insurance.
They’re ok with survivors paying at least a few hundred to enter the ER.
They’re ok with survivors going bankrupt as they struggle through surgeries and PT.
They’re ok with not funding PTSD help the survivors will need.
They’re ok with uninsured survivors being discharged once they’re stable, with no access to further surgeries, to PT, to medication, and with those people’s crippling debt and bankruptcy.
But, Karma, what if the survivors are disabled?
Then remember they’re ok with Republican states making them wait 2 full years after being certified as disabled before they have access to care, and that they’re actively trying to cut medicaid, medicare, and social security.
Oh, and if the doctor looks at your haircut and decides you’re queer, they ok with the doctor refusing to save your life in the ER, in the operating room, etc. “Religious freedom” laws allow that. In Florida, an insurance company employee can simply take your coverage away under the same policy.
But, Karma, surely Republicans aren’t ok with everything?!?
They’re not ok with white children learning about Rosa Parks.
