Let’s face it- according to Republicans, gun ownership is a “ god given “ right and basically who cares if children are killed as collateral damage in their fetish worship of flesh destroying weapons of war. They blame everything and everyone under the sun but not the reality of irresponsible gun sales, gun ownership and lax gun laws. After the announcement of this latest gun atrocity I watched the business as usual responses from Republican empty mouth pieces and told my daughter “ well, so much for anything getting done on gun legislation, sadly on to the next massacre “. And we know now to expect another mass shooting. It’s our gun fetishized culture ingrained into our DNA for many Americans. I honestly don’t care if someone has legally obtained hunting rifles, antique collections or whatever as long as they are registered, and proper storage is used. But I object to the availability of weapons of war that are designed to inflict massive damage to humans. They should not be available at all. I really don’t care if gun nuts object to restrictive access to certain death machines, too bad. My grandchildren and great grandchildren’s right to exist and go to school safely and for all of us to live our lives without fear of being wiped out by a “ machine gun “ supersedes somebody’s wrong headed 2nd amendment beliefs. Because let’s face it- they are wrong about the 2nd amendment allowing anyone other than under military conditions to use what would be considered weapons of war. As long as legislators are bought and sold by the NRA and gun companies “thoughts and prayers “ are the only solutions they offer. Unfortunately it will probably be the younger generation that have been in the trenches experiencing the carnage who may hopefully change our country to sane gun policy.
Simple solution: Ban all assault weapons. Give civilians 6 weeks to turn them in for a buyback. After that, anyone caught with one gets, upon conviction, a mandatory 25-year sentence. Of course this won't happen but, in a sane country, it's not that hard.

The majority is sane, we need to vote these idiots out.
That’s the crux of the issue, it is a minority of eligible votes who show up at the polls not a majority!
