“Our democracy has essentially been held at gunpoint,” @shannonrwatts of @momsdemand says of armed insurrectionists and gun-toting protests that have proliferated nationwide: “This is sort of a logical outcome of allowing the gun lobby to write our nation’s gun laws for so long.”

The gun reform movement is “now larger than the National Rifle Association,” says @shannonrwatts. One reason: “I do think lawmakers are now more afraid of angry moms than they are of gun lobbyists.” (corrects quote)

This is truly amazing. @MomsDemand and @shannonrwatts have done something truly amazing. The @NRA always was a corrupt, Feckless, Maffia-like organization. Angry moms finally are now listened to by Legislators more than the NRA. THAT is GOOD for the country.

So so much great work by @shannonrwatts - these bills that passed are in no small part due to the work she and the Moms have done. Bravo!!
