        Freedom comes with a pricetag. Background checks must Not an entry of population scoring like in China. A main challenge: the markets must Provider parents with cheap solutions to control access exclude certain members of the family. Forget keys. Biometric access to weapon safes!

        One way to stop mass killing with assault rifles is get rid of assault rifles. Safer communities and safer for police. Common sense!

        Try something else other than addressing the symptoms. Something constitutional.

        @marcorubio Even the WSJ says better background checks are necessary. If money is not the issue from the NRA (your comment tonight) then why accept it at all? You are a charlatan and hypocrite! #voterubiooutofoffice

        And another way is to reinstate a federal ban on assault weapons. Don’t be Gun Violence Deniers! Stop looking for other answers. Ban Machine guns. Let the CDC do a full blown study of gun violence in America, it’s affect on families, society. Learn from Australia.

        Ill and dangerous! Sounds like our government & the Democrats! Just kidding. "NOT" The best background check is a front ground check. We need the typical criminal history but we need where this person is in real time, right now life. Ask questions that may infringe! Get answers!
