Bipartisan Senate group proposes ‘no fly, no buy’ gun measure
#76
I think blues and purples are coming to the conclusion that prohibition and confiscation applies to people with guns who are adjudged to be dangerous on the basis of their public statements combined with violence, especially violence against women and animals, and racist/religous fanaticism, illegal activities, gun obsessions and fetishes, etc. Nikolas Cruz was certainly well-known to be someone who on that basis should not have been allowed to have any weapons, let alone a weapon of war. In California, people had not voted for a gun control initiative before, even though CA has become the strictest state for gun control. But it voted for this, proposed by Lt. Gov. Newsom (former SF mayor known for promoting same sex marriage).

The question it seems to me is whether we should have to pay the emotional, financial and moral costs of allowing these mass shootings to continue, instead of doing something about them. The red side should be imposed upon, because the red side today is not your grandfather's Republicans. They have devolved tremendously, beyond the bounds of reason and decency. They are not rational. They are the worst USA political grouping since the grays on the eve of the US civil war. They must be reined in before it's too late for us. It may already be.

Young people are getting really fed up with this.
