Dear Americans,

Forget about banning #Muslims, #Mexicans, etc.

BAN THE GOP & NRA.

THEY ARE THE ENABLERS

Gun fueled mass murder isn’t the exception - it’s as common and as American as apple pie

THIS IS WHO WE ARE

REMINDER: 41 Republicans blocked sensible gun legislation, right after the Sandy Hook

1. Damn right!

[tenderfoot]

2. This is Florida's problem.

Their free and easy gun laws enabled this heinous crime. States rights... right you righties?

3. Did California's more restrictive gun laws

Prevent the terrorist attack that occurred there?

[tenderfoot]

4. No. And neither did having the death penalty.

eom

5. Not sure what your point is

I've seen posts on DU today blaming Trump, AR-15s, gun forums, the NRA and Republicans. I haven't seen many blaming the terrorist who committed this heinous crime, or the religious philosophy that encourages it.

6. Exactly. It doesn't fit the preferred narrative. n/t

7. the point that the death penalty doesn't prevent heinous acts of violence...

it is supposedly there to deter crime - yet doesn't. In California, Florida, Texas, etc.... bloody murder still goes on. Gun free zone or not.

That's my point regarding the death penalty. My other point being that it's easy as f*** to legally get guns in Florida like this guy. Probably in California too. Especially if you're a security guard.
