The attacks on bigtree in his thread on this topic have just about done me in. I've always considered myself a moderate independent. After five years on DU, I am prouder than ever to call myself that.

to take action on here in the USA, right NOW.

Thankfully, bigtree's thread has a lot of people on it who are interested in Sensible Gun Laws.. in spite of the disrespect for the Sandy Hook kids who were slaughtered.

My internet connection went down at home so I ran over to the library here to check in. It's so close by.

I know... I needed to see this as a follow up to yesterday's Speech at the Univ of Hartford, too.

BOG

CALL TO ACTION!

and expertly delivered.

The republicans who are threatening to filibuster are shameful cowards to deny a vote on such an important issue.
