[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Don't worry. Mayor is on it:

“We’re devastated,” said D.C. Mayor Muriel E. Bowser (D), who attended the briefing. “We have to say to the community, ‘we’re going to stand against gun violence.’ ”[/quote]

I'm going to say it again:

Antonin Scalia and the Roberts court did this to DC.  They made up an individual right to own guns.  They did this to help their donors and gain political advantage in red areas outside DC.

It is disgusting and it is despicable.  Without the Roberts court, DC would ban guns, and likely VA and MD gun ownership would also be curtailed, greatly decreasing the supply of handguns in DC.

It is time to ban handguns in America.[/quote]

Oh, was the gun used in the crime legal and registered? [/quote]

Oh, stop with the idiotic Trumper Right Wing talking points.  Educate yourself on how many guns used in street crimes BEGAN life as "legal and registered" -- until they weren't.

Next excuse?[/quote]

[b]So how would making legal guns illegal, help with this issue? [/b]Your perp would illegally access an illegal gun. Would that make you feel better? If the Mayor wants to tackle gun violence, one method would be to call for an inquiry into why so many DC gun charges are simply dropped by prosecutors. Now that is a problem that affects us all.[/quote]

Canada, Australia, and even Russia effectively ban handguns.  We could do this too.  And then it would be much more difficult to acquire illegal handguns, and there would be fewer of them.

This isn't hard.  Every other country in the world, that's not run by one party ruled by billionaires who flood our streets with guns for votes, does this.[/quote]
