Going back for a moment to "Tampon Tim" Walz: I feel like there's a very good argument to be made for tampons to be available in every single classroom across the country, and that is that they can be used in an emergency to plug bullet and other puncture-type wounds.
And if people aren't comfortable with that, they can always work on ways to reduce school shootings instead.

I dunno, this was the kind of stuff you hear in the girl's cabin at sleepaway camp.
