Rob Rogers for February 05, 2017

I worry less about mass shootings by the mentally ill, than the people who die by suicide using a gun. Just too fast.

You all voted for the sucker, so there you have it

and we wonder why voters are so uninformed. Idiots like Rogers either don’t understand what happened or intentionally distort them.

Facts relevant to this cartoon:

Washington (CNN)The Republican-led House voted Thursday to repeal an Obama-era regulation that required the Social Security Administration to disclose to the national gun background check system information about people with mental illness.The regulation instituted in the final days of the Obama administration required the SSA to share information about those who are considered incapable of managing their own disability benefits due mental illness.The rule sought to limit the ability of those with mental illness to purchase guns but drew criticism for casting too wide a net and not providing the opportunity for due process. Opponents of the rule, including the National Rifle Association and the American Civil Liberties Union, also said the broad range of reasons that could be used to designate someone for the SSA database include conditions that should not stop a gun purchase.

jmattadams says “. nobody wants crazy people to get a gun.”>Oh, you bleeding heart liberal. They’re Americans too, so they get to have guns as well.

With the new designer drugs (antenatal, carfentanyl) people don’t need guns to suicide.

Got’ta hand it to the Congressman that wrote the bill to make sure those declared insane can buy guns again! Toon speaks truth.

Republicans hate your right to practice your religion. But they would still sell you a gun.
