They are America's unsung heroes.
Still trying to understand why we have children laying on other children to protect them from gun fire and we have law enforcement in DC picking up trash. How is this not front page news?!?
Little kids are having to use their bodies to shield friends from gunfire while armed soldiers are busy picking up trash.
This is Calvin literally every day!

Just a reminder--it was 13 days ago that Donald Trump said he needed two weeks to decide whether to push for harder sanctions on Russia.
