        If the government comes after you, you’re screwed. I’m sorry. An AR-15 won’t help. You don’t have tanks, or bombs, or surface-to-air anything. So stop using that as an excuse.

        It's not hard to buy guns. In fact gun owners have less responsibility than car owners. I should know, I own both. I didn't have to take a class, pass an exam, have a permit period to buy a gun. There is no requirement to insure or register it or retitled it if I give it away.

        Also, I have allergies. To get Claritin D, I have to show and scan my license every time. If I'm about to run out, I have to wait until I run out to buy more or I'll get denied. This is done to prevent abuse by those he convert D into meth. I go through this every 10-15 days.

        This doesn't even touch on the requirements women face just to get birth control. We have to be seen by an OBGYN. Depending on the BC type, we have to have an exam. Then once granted BC, we have to get the prescription every month at the pharmacy -- and hope insurance covers it.

        My point with these examples is that gun owners are not required to have any responsibility before the point of purchase, during the point of purchase, and after the point of purchase. The laissez-faire approach to gun access and ownership needs to end now. #GunControlNow

        Of course he did. In Florida you can go to a gun show, buy an assault weapon and as much ammo as you want, all without even showing a drivers license. These are the laws the NRA puppets are willing to write. FUCK THE CHILDREN, THIS SENATOR NEEDS TO GET PAID. Right @marcorubio

        These teenagers should be getting up this morning, grumbling about having to go to school. They should be sitting in class worried about impending exams; what college they will get into; what dreams they’ll fulfill. Instead, they are laying on a stainless steel table. Why?

        In a way it's scarier that he was able to buy the "gun" (assault weapon) legally. When I was that age I wouldn't have been trusted with a penknife.

        Its a strange, numbing, and melancholy feeling to wake up every morning and know the country you fought for and love, is failing. So much is wrong but when we can no longer pass laws that protect our children from public execution: its over.

        yes, just like the gunman of the Pulse shooting, the FBI had been alerted months ago about this kid.
