Largest Gun Study Ever: More Guns, More Murder

39. Just a moment, CTyankee. Here is what I wrote:

18. Imagine if we concentrated on that alone with 110% of our efforts.

Instead of dicking around with trying to ostracize anyone who supports the RKBA.

The solutions lie in addressing poverty and inequity and hopelessness.

By "we" I mean both we as Americans, including our legislators (both parties) who are doing a damn shitty job of taking care of the middle and lower class AND elected Democrats, many of whom support outsourcing and defunding public programs and education, AND we progressives, which happens to include a small but noisy contingent who spend more time trying insulting people than anything useful.

I hate that they do, I don't really think they are progressive, but they sure send a lot of energy in a divisive direction.

I haven't missed a thing, I know what we do toward social and economic justice, but this ridiculous focus on the gun and not the root causes of the violence has got to stop.

Yellow ribbons and candlelight vigils and laws that reclassify simple rifles as Assault Weapons which must be registered is just too much bullshit and police state nonsense for me.

Proposed California Law:

By the hearing's end, the committee had voted along party lines to approve bills that would add all semi-automatic rifles that accept detachable magazines to the state's list of banned assault weapons

I'm very disappointed in these Democrats, savvy progressives would never let the state have that much power.

Thanks for your reply.
