"There's fifty senetors right now who refuse to vote on HR-8, which is a background check rule that the house passed a couple of years ago, it's been sitting there for two years. And there is a reason they won't vote on it:
To hold onto power."
Steve Kerr speech following school shooting in Uvalde, Texas leaving 19 children and 2 teachers dead.

Boy I sure do love living in America and hearing automatic gunfire from the crappy neighborhood across the river from me from time to time.

Some days are heavier than others, that’s okay. Give yourself grace to rest when needed, cry when needed, and laugh at the mess of the world when needed.

The NRA Would Do This If They Could
The NRA Would Do This If They Could
Shootings in America are happening so often that the thoughts and prayers of well-meaning-but-ineffective do-gooders can’t keep up. Stop the gun violence, regulate the shit out of it. It has worked for other countries; it can work here. And with regard to the dark cartoon, I believe the NRA really would do this if they thought they could turn a buck out of it.

As the COVID-19 pandemic took hold in 2020, so did another grim reality: For the first time, guns became the leading cause of death for American children and teenagers, surpassing car accidents, the long-standing leader.
In 2021, youth firearm death rates did not fall to pre-pandemic levels as hoped, but instead continued a sharp rise to hit a new record high. That's according to a recent study led by researchers in New York and published in the journal Pediatrics. The study was based on national mortality data from the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention.
Nationwide, there were 4,752 firearm deaths of American children and teens (ages 0 to 19) in 2021, translating to a rate of 5.8 gun deaths per 100,000 people. The deaths represent a nearly 9 percent increase from 2020 (4,368 or 5.4 deaths per 100,000).

"If not to solve a problem as existential as this. This isn't inevitable, these kids weren't unlucky. This only happens in this country, no where else. No where else do kids go to school thinking they're going to be shot that day...
No where does that happen except here in the United States of America and it is a choice, it is our choice, to let it continue.
What. Are. We. Doing? "
Sen. Chris Murphy pleads with the U.S. Senate for gun control. May 25, 2022
