    Heartbroken to hear of the San Diego synagogue shooting, particularly so on this final day of Passover. We have a responsibility to love + protect our neighbors. The longer the Senate delays holding a vote on #HR8, the more we put Americans at risk.https://www.nytimes.com/2019/04/27/us/poway-synagogue-shooting.amp.html …

        That was just massacring Christians, oh wait I’m sorry- Easter worshippers (news flash, they don’t worship Easter, they worship Christ) Christians are the only group you’re allowed to hate on, that’s why the silence, it didn’t fit her agenda anywhere.

        Here in CA, we are not an open carry state. This means, effectively, all guns are banned outside our homes. What stricter laws could there be? Also..which ones would criminals obey? We're all ears.

        Mitch McConnell is nowhere to be found. He refuses to hold a vote on common sense gun laws, even though the House approved them. @senatemajldr, you should be ashamed of yourself.

        That just shows that even in a state with more stricter gun laws that bad people will not listen to any gun law no matter where they are or what law it is against gun rights

        Things don't change overnight. But it's an undisputable fact that less guns on the street = less gun violence.

        And how do you plan to take away guns from people that doesn’t follow the law? A gun that no person knows they even possess? They won’t hand it over willingly even if a full ban took place.

        Yeah, I don't support the idea of confiscating guns from law abiding citizens who obtained their weapons legally. The furthest I'd want to go with gun control is to stop selling said weapons and let the supply slowly decrease over time.

        I'm fine with handguns but no "law abiding citizen" should own assault rifles, shotguns, etc. Those guns are designed to kill people that's it.

        More homicides are committed with handguns then any other type of gun. And a handgun is meant to “kill” just like the rest. More so then a shotgun or rifle.

        The point is not to confiscate guns, it’s to regulate sales + distribution of deadly weapons. Buybacks, ending loopholes, straw purchases, bkgd checks, licenses/permits/registries/insurance… lotta ways to make public spaces safer. Then there’s the #HateCrime aspect to this.

        The background check is already a law. A law that didn’t stop 2 major mass shootings that has already taken place. So how effective can any other law be if it is not upheld and used 100% like it should be
