Bipartisan Senate group proposes ‘no fly, no buy’ gun measure
Well maybe, but remember, lots of people, young and old, suddenly go blue (even if claiming non-partisanship, probably correctly) on gun control, after suffering the results of its absence. It was, of course, one of the largest demonstrations ever, and the largest ever student demonstration. Calling it a blue pep rally is not exactly accurate Smile

I don't know if the mayor of Nashville is blue or not, but it's in a very red state with little gun control, and he's now for gun control after the shooting in the nearby suburb at the Waffle House.

""For a moment, let's be honest about what happened," Mayor Briley said. "Last night, innocent Nashvilleans were terrorized by a man with an AR-15. Let's be honest. Some people see these weapons as having a purpose of terrorizing other people. It's happening too much. Enough is enough."
At at little after 3 a.m., 29-year-old Travis Reinking allegedly stormed the Waffle House restaurant in Antioch and used an "assault-type rifle" to carry out the carnage, authorities said. The shooting stopped only because of the heroics of a customer who heard the gunshots and hid near the restaurant's bathrooms, they said, before he rushed the gunman, wrestled the rifle from him and threw it away."
