This country has a problem with mass shootings at home, mass illness and death from treatable physical and mental health problems, mass death due to massive funding of wars abroad and lack of funding for basic life services at home.

Well include me in both of those labels if it makes you feel intelligent. You're not. They are both meaningless terms at best or codewords for those opposed to legalized murder at worst.
