they were both right, sensible laws could have saved so many lives in Vegas and in Texas. But Thoughts and prayers are all they got. How many children will die in the next school shooting that you will offer useless thoughts and prayers to?

If you’re a member of Congress and all you’re doing is sending thoughts and prayers to the victims of these horrible tragedies, you’re simply not doing the job you were elected to do.
It’s telling Mike Lester sees the “gun grabber” character portrayed as effeminate. Lester needs to learn real men don’t need guns, and, especially for him, a gun doesn’t make you a strong, virile, macho man.
JAMES, the problem with the instant background check is that it has a huge loophole : That is the gun show and personal sale exceptions. The shooter, if he hadn’t been able to get his killing machine from a gun store, could easily have just gone to a show to get one, or many.
We need to tighten down hard on who can get these dangerous tools and just how dangerous they are.
