24. How many people will suffer violent gun death?

How many people will suffer violent gun death before enough Americans get fed up enough to vote in a workable gun-control quorum in state and federal legislatures?

As improbable and difficult as some think it may be, it's time to start a repeal-the-second-amendment movement and keep it going until it can be repealed and we can finally control gun violence in America from the hardware side of the equation.

The wingnuts patiently waited and worked for 50 years to kill Roe. If we start now and leverage every mass shooting to the cause, we could get repeal in the next 50 years.
