  1. Gun violence will never stop until things are changed at the highest level and that is not going to happen while these gun fascists continue to line their pockets by the NRA. Funny, they all get in an uproar over guns and their rights while at the same time stripping away the rights of women, LGBTQ, people of colour, and voters.

  2. Mike Johnson new house speaker dismiss guns safety law say this not time to talk about that if it was one of his kids I guess it wouldn't be time to talk about that either his nose is up Trump A##

  3. The gun manufacturers and Republican politicians are the ones who are responsible for preventing laws from existing that can minimize the gun violence that is occurring in our society!
    But when you get right down to it, REPUBLICAN POLITICIANS ARE REALLY THE PEOPLE WHO ARE RESPONSIBLE FOR PREVENTING US FROM MAKING LAWS THAT CAN STOP THIS CRAP!
    Because they are listening to the lobbyists that are hired by the gun manufacturers! They are the ones who are taking bribes from gun manufacturers in the form of campaign contributions!
    It is Republican politicians who are ultimately responsible for every single one of these deaths from mass shootings, because they do not want to do anything to stop them from happening!

  4. Many people think Republicans are not doing anything about gun violence! This is not really true! The keywords we should be concerned about are the words "NOT DOING ANYTHING"!
    Because the words not doing anything, imply that the Republicans are just sitting on their hands not doing anything! BUT THAT ABSOLUTELY COULD NOT BE FURTHER FROM THE TRUTH!
    It's not that Republicans are not doing anything! No, no, no! If that were simply the case, then common sense gun control legislation would be very easy to enact! But it's not, BECAUSE…
    The truth is, REPUBLICAN POLITICIANS ARE ACTIVELY INVOLVED IN RESISTING GUN VIOLENCE PREVENTION, AND ARE ACTUALLY ACTIVELY INVOLVED IN ENABLING GUN VIOLENCE!
