        If you oppose any and all gun safety laws, you are basically saying, "My right to buy any gun I want, any time I want, for any reason I want, is MORE IMPORTANT than the LIFE of your CHILD." #WeCallBS #GunReformNow

        Huh? Are they trying to find a "happy medium?" Typical...do something without actually doing something.

        Well, at least a FEW Republicans are beginning to notice. What about the guy at the top, though? Will he ever notice? He should be impeached over dereliction of duty. He's not doing anything about anything.
