        How about enforcing the laws already written. Or crack down on enforcement. Or better yet, Make people do their job. Something useful. Something helpful. Or let's ban AR-15s. 👍👍👍

        It wasn't the background system that failed. Can we say? US Air Force? How many others failed as well to forward needed information?

        Good job GOP! Now maybe you can introduce legislation making it illegal to buy assault rifles at sporting goods stores staffed by part-time workers?

        @JohnCornyn Cornyn never seems to miss an opportunity to attempt to diminish 2nd Amendment rights. He is becoming more of a RINO every day he's in DC and now is lying sack of political cowardice and opportunism. Time to send conservative we can trust to DC to replace him!

        @POTUS & other "Idiots At Large": Background checks won't help! Your GREED is too well established to protect yourselves from each other! Indeed! Abandoning YOUR CHILDREN to the Non-Stop HeatRise confirms your existence as "Self-Arming & Harming". So CLAIMS: AmericasShame😎com

        I hope so. The 2nd amendment is our right, but making it harder to get a gun is a good thing.
