If more guns make us safer why to we have to give little kids active shooter drills? Just asking for a friend. Of course the Repubs will trot out the usual excuses and deflections. It's automatic with them. With so many mass shootings in the good ol' U.S. of A they've had lots and lots of practice.

IMO if you've taken money from the NRA you're compromised. This goes for ANY politician.

This country already many times over is the most heavily armed per person. Also is the leader in school shootings. I heard last night on TV, that the number one cause of death for children is gun violence in our country also.

So once again the answer is the same more guns?


I say time for a different approach.

After expecting more of the same from the NRA's representatives in Congress one voice stood above the others.

GOP Rep. Paul Gosar spread a baseless transphobic rumor that the Uvalde school shooting suspect was a 'transsexual leftist illegal alien'

Count Gosar, whose own family says should be booted from office, among those Repubs who just need to STFU but don't know how.

Our totally irrational irrespon$ible policy of providing unlimited free access to ma$$ produced firearm$ with virtually no accountability has everything to do with the pu$h to defend our $acred right to provide vulnerable moving target$ in public $hooting gallerie$ for well-armed deranged homical person$ under their $econd amendment privilege.
Oh, and Ted Nugent gets to have machine gun$ and Wayne La Pierre get$ more bespoke zoot suit$ and private luxury jetliner$. Follow the money.

The two milspec long guns he bought were legal. Don't know about the handgun.
