      It’s Friday, so call me crazy, but I can’t wait for next week. On Wednesday, our @HouseJudiciary Committee will have the first hearing on gun violence in 8 years. A new Congress is putting your right to be safe over any other rights. #EnoughIsEnough #HR8

      For too long, an NRA-controlled Congress failed to pass common sense gun laws, instead allowing the most dangerous weapons to be in the hands of the most dangerous people. Predictably, thousands have died. & Congress would respond w/ moments of silence & zero moments of action.

      Those days are over. Your life matters. Your child’s freedom to learn without fear matters. Your ability to go to church without going through a metal detector matters. And young black men, who we lose every day in our cities to gun violence, matter. #EnoughIsEnough

          Sorry but I feel safer when I am armed as opposed to guns strictly in the hands of criminals.

          This is called a false sense of security. Canada is good comparison, guns are not illegal. Criminals there have them. Most of the public is unarmed. In 2016, one in every 166,000 were killed in firearm related death. In USA, same year, one in every 22,545 (and 9x population).

          You say my life matters, yet you are trying to take away my right to defend myself

          Your life matters? Tell that to the America citizens that have been killed by illegal aliens that should have been deported. Or to the 9 month old baby fetus about to be born that you and your progressive dems say it’s ok to kill.

          @RepSwalwell I wont be sarcastic in this comment. Who will protect us if not ourselves? Cops have no duty to protect. So will there be a law saying if cops fail to provide protection they'll be sentenced to prison?

          Any time a Dem says “common sense” or “Comprehensive”, grab your wallet and run.

          My wife had a fear one day in a Walmart parking lot. Luckily a Ruger 9 mm 13+1 took that fear away. No shooting just pull and point, fear gone.

          Want to stop drunk drivers from killing sober drivers? Ban sober drivers from driving. That's how gun control works... very logical, right?!

          You do realize already strict gun laws in those cities and lots of the gang members have disqualifying felonies, but I'm sure they will listen to you and abide by your laws cause you and Kamala were prosecutors
