Posted on this on my blog The Stubborn Mule

Yet, even in Pennsylvania, my home state, where I worked within the state legislature I experienced the vastness of the political spectrum and sheer absurdity of some members of the GOP. One in particular, the Chairman of the State Government Committee, Representative Daryl Metcalfe, who is the proud owner of ten brain cells, explicitly stated there will be no new state legislation on gun control. That’s it, period. Even with children being laid to rest just a few hundred miles north of his legislative district, murdered from a weapon of war, he responds so arrogantly and definitively. Not even a discussion, no voice of dissent, just closing the door or in this case, the casket.
