That makes no sense. What kind of people ARE they, to see children hunted down and killed like animals, and decide to loosen gun regulations?

They succeeded in recalling one senator and getting my state senator to resign under recall petition action. He is a gun nut and a guns everywhere senator. The next election will be about guns. One bill had been magazine limitation law.

After the terrible tradgey the GOP wanted to show solidarity with gun owners and pro gun groups.

This is why they are twisted evil people.

"The legislation was heard in the Democrat-controlled House State, Veterans and Military Affairs Committee."

Not quite the same way the GOPers in Congress act. They prefer closed door meetings with no Democrats allowed and blocking debate rather than engaging in it.
