    America's gun buying background check system is supposed to keep firearms out of reach for dangerous individuals. Here's how it works: http://cnn.it/2CpaCj1 pic.twitter.com/fUzmdmHSGw

        Only the military has assault rifles. Black and plastic does not make it a machine gun. Let's focus on the culture and what causes sociopaths to be normalized by violence, toughen background checks & identify/treat mental illness.

        No... here's how it works: Gun lobbyists buy our elected officials. They want to keep that money so they do nothing but offer up thoughts and prayers. Be journalists.... put those numbers up for America to see. Greed is killing our children.

        This background check cannot work belief me!! The best solution, “make bearing arms an illegal act in any state or territory of the USA, mentally deranged people even without the clearance to get a gun will always find a way to have one Best option remove all guns from all homes

        So what's your plan? Realistically? How are you going to disarm people with assault rifles? Who is going to go around and round them (assault weapons not people) up? You? Who are you going to pay to do it? The cops? The military?

        They never have an answer. No one has a good plan to reduce murders from gun violence. If they do it always infringes on the rights of law abiding citizens.

        Trump made it easier for people like this to get guns. Trump is therefor complicit in these murders. He should be prosecuted as well.
