"Many children were left not only dead but hollow."

Post by Jersey Girl »

Many children were left not only dead but hollow.~ Matthew McConaughey

Hollow.

NO one has spoken like this on the Uvalde shooting. He spoke for the parents and their children. He spoke emotionally, factually, intimately, graphically, passionately, and forcefully, and I think this is what this country needs. If we can't cry for the loss of these lives and feel it in our gut, then we can't fix anything. If we can't relate, we don't stand a hope in hell of changing this.

He spoke of one nine-year-old girl only being identifiable by her tennis shoes.

My apologies for interrupting the seriousness of this matter in order to heckle Breitbart’s response to McConaughey’s plea here, but it’s almost insulting to see any source tweet out something as ridiculous as they did.

Breitbart should probably see about doing their homework on McConaughey.
