    Large majorities of Americans say neither Pres. Trump nor Congress are doing enough to prevent mass shootings. 58% say stricter gun laws could have prevented last week's Florida school shooting, according to a new @ABC News / Washington Post poll. http://abcn.ws/2EGbd5V pic.twitter.com/Pw1gyMU0Et

        Your own poll shows the majority of Americans saying mass shootings are a reflection of mental health issues. Only 28% said gun control laws. Hmm I wonder why that wasnt your headline? 🤔 #Narrativepic.twitter.com/UbBkaTGXBz

        We have a commitment to reality here, Clinton, Bush and Obama administrations let nearly 200 shootings happen before President Trump even ran for office. How do people forget the last 20 years?

        So would have social services that interviewed him, the 3 dozen calls to police about him or the 2 to FBI. Or ...metal detectors and armed guards at school. Pick one.

        The FBI receives numerous tips and warnings, it’s hard to pick and choose which to act on. One of their warnings about the FL shooter was 5 months ago and nothing happened right then...this is not solely their problem.

        No mention of the many, many mass shootings that happened while Obama was in office for a full eight years? A little over a year in office and it's all Trumps fault. Interesting.pic.twitter.com/MQRQGoppVN

        Florida state legislators have voted down a motion to hear a bill that would ban assault rifles. Students from MS. Douglas High react. "It's just giving me even more drive to go up there and to tell them how I feel ... that's kind of like a big screw you." pic.twitter.com/roKAcyU6bM

        Ppl think stricter gun laws would have stopped this. It wouldn't. Nothing can stop someone determined to commit evil. He could have easily ran them over at the bus stop. But we are not talking about making it harder to get a license or a car?

        You don't know that! ALOT CAN STOP EVIL! Getting a license and a car have laws n regulations AND repercussions. Look I'm not going very deep w/ this w/u! My determination is what can't b stopped. I'm a mother that has lost a child to a gun. SO many things could have stopped it.pic.twitter.com/q8K7zyCEO0

        Sorry for your loss. No one should ever have to bury their child. I'm sure you realize that evil is evil. The absence of God and family is to blame. Not guns.

        Again that is absolutely not true. All involved... God, no broken family none of what ur actually saying u KNOW is correct. How would u know? Ur assuming which is an ignorant thing to do. Why r u so afraid of better and management gun regulations.

        I didn't say ur a villain. IDK u. We could sit side by side @ vols game this year n hit it off n share stories. U owning one doesn't make u a villain or a bad person.If it takes tht mile ur referring to for a mother to not have to lay their child to rest then it was all worth it!
