        Let's take it ALL THE WAY and make sure guns are allowed in the Capitol. If we have to live w armed crazies in public, so do they.

        His "warning" is a conservative, NRA fueled knee jerk reaction in itself.

        @SteveScalise, with respect, it's not a knee jerk reaction. We beg for you to take action every time this happens. Please, do something.

        These aren't knee-jerk reactions. They're the same stances each side has taken on guns for the past I don't know how many years.

        I agree. But we should pay attention to the base reasons why the shootings happen to begin with. Why people decide to go killing.
