I'll tell you when meaningful gun control will become a reality.

[Binkie The Clown]

When two-thirds of all Americans are personally acquainted with a family that has lost a child to gun violence. In other words, when it no longer has to appear on the the news for people to be aware of it. When it happens in everyone's own back yard, and everyone is personally aware of the devastation guns cause. It's a tragedy, but I'm very much afraid that this is what it will take to get people to wake the fuck up.

1. When Congressman Steve Scalise Was Shot In The Baseball Field Ambush.....

I thought Congress would act then because it was one of their own that was shot.

I don't think anything happened other than probably putting more security details on Congress critters.

I really don't know what it will take to get meaningful gun safety laws.

COVID was everything we need to know how important keeping us fighting against each other AND how powerful their media is in their own people.
