Even with your little sarcasm gif.

Unless people quit voting for republicans, nothing is going to happen on real gun control. They're all bought and paid for by the nra and gun lobby. To really influence people, Matthew McConaughey should disavow any politician who doesn't support sensible gun laws. But, he won't and the carnage will continue.
