What would congress do?

There are about 30K gun deaths every year..that works out to about 4 planeloads of people every week.

What if there were 4 plane crashes every week?

Would congress make new laws for Boeing/Airbus/whomever?

Would people be up in their faces about safety?

Do we ever hear this after a crash? "Now is not the time to..yadayadayada"

Kick in to the DU tip jar?

This week we're running a special pop-up mini fund drive. From Monday through Friday we're going ad-free for all registered members, and we're asking you to kick in to the DU tip jar to support the site and keep us financially healthy.

As a bonus, making a contribution will allow you to leave kudos for another DU member, and at the end of the week we'll recognize the DUers who you think make this community great.
