When Is The Next Filibuster On Background Checks? And The Next? --- >Surrendered Already?

So here is an issue that 92% of Americans agree on.

Background checks.

And the Republicans block action.

And the Democrats surrender as usual.

Anyone with half a brain would be filibustering right now, and scoring political points by the truckload.

What are Democrats waiting for?

The next mass shooting, I forgot.

Not filibustering RIGHT NOW is political malpractice.

The Democrats have once again already surrendered.

And they wonder why people don't vote.

FILIBUSTER UNTIL SOMETHING IS DONE IDIOTS!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

It's a suicide pact, and the SCOTUS has already ruled that the Constitution is not a suicide pact.
