I understand, and Cruz is basically an evil person.
But that the atmosphere of violence and aggression in the USA keeps boiling over.

People are pissed, and have been for a while now.

Yes, but you are, to me, at a COLD CIVIR WAR level. And unless reigned in, those can become NOT COLD in a hurry.

The top reply to this is correct, this is a confrontation, not a heckling. He's literally out to lunch or dinner while attending the NRA convention. He's gonna have to deal with whatever comes his way.

But also, this isn't that new. Remember, these GOP Senators have continuously stopped holding town hall meetings with few exceptions since their asses got lit up like Times Square during every town hall that took place during the healthcare repeal vote period no matter how red the district was and they have been avoiding interactions with the public on the regular ever since. So yeah, this is going to happen. It's happened before to him and others and it will keep happening. They don't get to live their cushy lives as unbothered as they wish.

Another example of why the media should stop reporting these mass killings...

This kid certainly didn't get the idea out of thin air...
(And, frankly, even this shouldn't be reported, as it serves no real purpose)...

10 Year Old Boy Threatens to Shoot Up a School...

And, of course, the NON-SEQUITUR is the one that gets it right.
I love this guy.

Aside from the delayed response to the mass shooting (though massacre sounds more accurate unfortunately), almost every single thing I've seen with Uvalde's local support makes perfect sense in how it is playing out as long as I think of it in the context of the small town in Western Pennsylvania where my mom grew up. From the cities where I'm from or have lived, this seems so bizarre. But thinking of it in small town way, I can see it all happening almost in identical fashion where my mom grew up. If you're new, you might have problems, but if your family has been there and established in the community, they'll close ranks around you no doubt.

Does this idjut think mourning stops after a certain period of time so it'll be safe to start the process over again by telling them the truth about what happened? Or does he think everyone is as big an idjut as he is and not realize that his answer is really "never"?
