Let's hope we finally get the kind of Federal gun legislation we desperately need. But in the meantime - voting for local Dems can't hurt. And those elections are happening right now all over the country. Ballot-Z.org #VirusFreeVotingIllinois

Republicans want to be able to legally shoot, and drive over, democratic protesters of their fascism.
