Schools are supposed to be safe havens, but instead we have active shooter drills and “run, hide, fight” exercises. How can society stomach this and not FORCE action? We have several bills that could immediately begin to stop the carnage.
Universal background checks. Anyone can walk into a gun show or go online and buy a gun, with no checks at all. This isn’t a loophole, it’s a cataclysmic flaw in the system that lets any dangerous people buy as many guns as they want. Poll: 83% of Americans support this.
Extreme-risk law. This bill would let loved ones or law enforcement go to court to get a lawful orders to remove firearms from people at risk of harming themselves or others. It protects due process and it’s common sense. Poll: 76% of Americans support this.
Raise age for assault rifles. Today, an 18-year-old can’t buy a beer OR a handgun, but he can but an AR-15. Why a higher age limit for handguns and not the weapon of choice for mass shooters? Our bill raises the age to 21. Common sense. Poll: 71% of Americans support this.
Assault Weapons Ban: We need to get these military-style assault weapons off the street! These aren’t for hunting or home protection, their only purpose is to kill as many people as possible, as quickly as possible. Poll: 60 percent of Americans support a ban.
Ban high-capacity magazines. Mass shooters often use magazines that hold 30 or more rounds. This means more shooting, less reloading and limited chances to stop a shooter. There’s no reason for these high-capacity magazines.
The last gun ban congress passed didn’t reduce gun crime.

My granddaughter's school was in lockdown a couple of weeks ago and I seem to be the only one who is still agitated about it. People get used to this in war zones. Why is America a war zone?
Or Congress is bought and paid for by the gun lobby. We need to overturn citizens United.
