Oh, the (lack of) humanity!

According to republicans, oops!

Missouri Governor Mike Parson this week said he didn't feel any more responsible for all the coronavirus deaths in his state than he did about people who die in auto accidents, saying more or less that these things happen and it's just life.  Guilt is for pantywaists.

Leaving aside the obvious question of just who in the hell Parson believes should take the appropriate actions when a state's citizens are in the midst of a pandemic, the sheer and utter callousness of his response is exceedingly bothersome.  I mean shouldn't a public official, especially the leader of a state, show some kind of sympathy for the loss either of these entails?  People in Missouri have lost parents, grandparents, sons, daughters, aunts, uncles, cousins, and lifelong friends to COVID-19.  People in Missouri have lost children because some idiot chose to drive drunk.  Shouldn't at the very least Parson acknowledge the tragedy in such losses?  At least show some sadness for the pain encountered?

Apparently such shows of humanity aren't in the republican playbook...unless of course you're a Confederate traitor.

Then it's enough tragedy to merit a meaningless statue.

Fuck Donald Trump,
