        Lol isn’t @GregAbbott_TX just an NRA-funded “politician,” helping gun manufacturers sell guns — even if it means our kids get mass-murdered?

        Guns don’t automatically chamber their own bullets, pull back the slide, take off the safety, and pull their own trigger. Stop blaming guns for the actions of vile human beings. I guarantee you would never say these things to @GregAbbott_TX in person. Coward.

        Did I say anything suggesting that guns "automatically chamber their own bullets, pull back the slide, take off the safety, and pull their own trigger"?

        You're suggesting that guns are the direct cause of the destruction that came from a school shooting. Therein suggesting that guns somehow directly shoot people without human interaction. You're not placing the blame on the individuals responsible, you're instead blaming guns.

        Of course access to guns is the problem. How would anyone know when someone is going to suddenly decide to become a “vile” human being & start a massacre? Here in UK there’s less than 10 gun deaths a year, because: No access. #GunContolNow

        The UK also has bigger issues like acid attacks on women and immigrant rape that has soared in the past decade. Access to guns is not the problem, education and proper administration of firearms is the issue. We should focus on putting guns in the right hands, not the bad.

        That’s a specious argument. You’re deflecting & trying to change the subject because your position is untenable. It means somehow ensuring that all of the millions of firearms don’t fall into the wrong hands, ever. And if they do - children get slaughtered. #weak

        I'm not deflecting - you seemed to think that bringing up the UK in comparison to the US in terms of heinous crimes was a good idea so I thought it proper to disprove that. Saying that you want guns banned is like saying that we can't trust anyone with a car (a deadly weapon)

        And lucky for them they have less of a chance of being killed defending their country than going to one of your schools. Shame on @GregAbbott_TX and the financial support he gets from arms dealers like @NRA

        Did it ever occur to you that you’re married to ideas that are totally wrong? And that this is the reason gun massacres happened in a Texas church and school? And that the governor of Texas is responsible for ensuring the safety of Texas schools, but you failed? #GunContolNow

        Blind worship of the military is one step in the road to fascism.
