        Can we let the wounded and loved ones of the dead sit in Congress for just one day? I'm sure they would solve this problem. #stopthecarnage

        They can’t. Remember the @NRA supported @realDonaldTrump by dropping $30mil into his campaign. Congress has no ⚽️⚽️.

        Gun control is a polical issue. How can you “politicize” something that is already political. If now isn’t the time, when is it?

        Aaron, it needs to be addressed, in a bipartisan way, but timing no good here. Let's grieve, unite and pray for those changed fams 4 life.

        Gabby, could you 'find the courage ' to address health care, tax reform, border security... respect to our flag... do I need to go on?

        More gun control laws is not the answer. More respect for life is what is needed as well as higher morals.

        I'm not sure it's 'courage' needed to change gun policy, so much as compassion. No 1 is 'brave' 4 passing up funding.

        Can you legislate what's in a person's heart? NO! If not guns, vehicles, bombs or anything the evil can use. Do not lose common sense.

        Uh, guns arent violent, Gabby. They’re inanimate objects that neither load nor fire themselves. Concentrate on “see something/say something.
