    This failure to pass expanded background checks is mind boggling #CrushTheNRA

        @SamHarrisOrg Absolutely. Father is retired army / police and I've never seen him so upset. Regulate things that cause death. #whysohard?

        @kakelaross @SamHarrisOrg So am I to believe that we can regulate men into angels? Banning explosives really stopped the Boston event right?

        @XPrometheusX @kakelaross @SamHarrisOrg Did regulating drunk driving diminish the number of drunk driving accidents? Yes.

        @AdmiralWhackbar @kakelaross @SamHarrisOrg Banning the means to a wicked end, is a negation of causality. You cannot regulate evil.

        @XPrometheusX @kakelaross @SamHarrisOrg You can diminish it, like the 65% decrease in drunk driving deaths after the govt started regulating

        @AdmiralWhackbar @kakelaross @SamHarrisOrg Decrease the amount of shootings you want, men will still remain evil. Why disarm the rest of us?

        @JCrawford15 A large majority of people feel something should be done (even small). This rage on twitter today is a feeling of helplessness.

        @jmedoom agree. I'm an ex-NRA member. For this very reason. No reasonable compromises from that lobby.

        @SamHarrisOrg Only to bigots and those whose minds have not bothered to investigate the relevant facts. I just donated $50 to the @NRA.
