This year only.....

There have been 18 school shootings according to the news (MSNBC), since the beginning of the year. Forty five days into the year and there have been 18. That is almost one every other day.

we dont think poor mothers of children should have food nor the chilldren.

we dont think people should have healthcare unless rich

Why in the world would we think children should be able to go to school without having to be shot?

I truly believe the NRA is being funded by the Russians. There is no way they could have the kind of money they have to spend from membership subscriptions on political campaigns. Even the money they get from the gun manufacturers, it just doesn't add up. They must be getting money and lots of it from other sources. I think it's Putin.
