“Out of a mountain of despair a stone of hope.” - MLK Jr. We’re all feeling the despair and we all must be the hope. Remember to call the Capitol switchboard at 202-224-3121 to tell your Senators & Congresspeople if you want an assault weapons ban and expanded background checks.

What if I don't want an assault weapons ban, who should I call? Expanded background checks, tho, as long as they are instantaneous.

You already have the NRA working for you all day every day, so you don’t need to worry.

but we don’t want the military and police to seize firearms so the state can monopolize violence

Banning assault weapons does not mean repealing the Second Amendment. People are free to drive but there are still traffic laws.

Assault weapons have been banned since 1994. An AR15 is not an assault rifle. A fully automatic rifle is an assault rifle. If you categorize an AR15 as an assault rifle then hand guns will fall@under that category.

Because banning drugs worked so well... What's the body count on that?
Replying to @marwilliamson
Get a life Marianne. Funding for mental health will do way more than seizing guns from honest people.
