I mean, there's "biblical precedent" for God punishing kids for those like him who believe such nonsense. From 2 Kings:
"23 From there Elisha went up to Bethel. As he was walking along the road, some boys came out of the town and jeered(A) at him. “Get out of here, baldy!” they said. “Get out of here, baldy!” 24 He turned around, looked at them and called down a curse on them in the name of the Lord. Then two bears came out of the woods and mauled forty-two of the boys."

Excellent

Sadly, the greater lunacy would be those that vote for these fools

Seems the problem is not the politicians but the industries (lobbyists) funding politicians which support those industries no matter how insane and deadly the industry is. Decades ago we went through a similar scenario with cigarette companies. Now the gun industries have said they learned a lesson from that period. They will only support brainless and spineless politicians which, in today's politics seem to mean republicans.

I'm surprised the knuckle-dragging Gohmert even has enough brain cells to breathe on his own. His level of idiocy, unfortunately, is endangering us all, but particularly children.
