    A major Republican donor in Florida, Al Hoffman Jr. has raised hundreds of millions of dollars for Republicans. But in the wake of the shooting at Stoneman Douglas High School, Hoffman sent an e-mail to other GOP donors, urging them to support a ban on assault weapons:pic.twitter.com/oGPJVy2k4M

        The FBI saved no one from terror attacks - the FBI trick homeless people looking for free shoes into plots. The FBI have never busted a terror plot they themselves did not set up as a sting operation.

        He knows, as all should know, that the only way to really get the attention of a politition is to affect his or her campaign funds. Hopefully more donors will follow his lead.

        90%+ of the population wants more effective gun regulation. But oh goodie, a big donor wants more controls. This IS the case for reversing Citizens United. Public funding of elections, now!

        So, he wants a ban on assault weapons (i.e. other than an AR15), since we all know that an AR15 is not an assault weapon..
