I think that unlike previous times, there’s hope to pass now common sense gun laws
Stevenn, are you TRYING to start the next civil war? Do you WANT one? The laws you would like are NOT “common sense”, they are evil and tyrannical, and if they pass they will be resisted, if necessary by force. Remember, when the shooting starts we have the guns and you don’t. And most of the army will be on our side, not yours. They will not obey blatantly illegal orders, which any order to violate the second amendment would be.
Halevai it would have been a “shooing”.
YWN, the “T” is missing, altering the meaning massively. Please correct.
gun laws that won’t be followed? I think they should pass a law and ban murder instead. Maybe make it illegal to shoot people. That would be a better start. Small steps.
Just like Obama covering up the fact that Muslim terrorists carried out the San Bernardino massacre, President Psaki is doing the same with the Boulder massacre. I thought Beto O’Rourke promised us during the Presidential debates that when the Dems steal the Congress & Senate, they would strip all guns from priviliged WHITE heterosexual males? Psaki has been in office a few months already. Why hasn’t she done this already? I hope the gun used will be arrested and thrown in prison.
