How about enacting real change by deciding that enough is enough?
A gun is in no way comparable to a human life. That's the real crux of the issue.
America is making the gun more important than a human life.
Enough of this madness.
Um no, I really do think Parkland changed things. You would have thought Newtown would have, but I wouldn't give up. The volume of safety groups have grown since Newtown,
Newtown Action
Sandy Hook Promise
Collation to Stop Gun Violence
Moms Demand Action
Every Town For Gun Safety
And unfortunately now "A March For Our Lives" lead by the Parkland students.
The reason it is currently hard to get anything done is because of the laws made by the GOP decades ago which made it virtually impossible to hold the firearm companies responsible. The age of Reagan's deregulation combined with GOP gerrymandering and the help of the profit lobby NRA have all combined to make it hard to enact safety laws.
But the good thing is even among gun owners, the overwhelming majority want better regulations to reduce firearm violence.
