[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]A child from my daughter's school was murdered on Tuesday. Just sitting in his apartment, playing video games, shot in the head by a random bullet from gunfire outside his apartment. His mother, mourning her child right now- that could be me. That could be you. We can play pretend, oh I don't live in one of those apartment complexes, that's where all this stuff happens, I live in a "nice" neighborhood, I live on a cul-de-sac, I live in Bethesda, whatever. The median income in Newtown, where Sandy Hook happened: $127,602. Who are we kidding? The HHI y'all love so darn much can't insulate you from this; this can happen anywhere now. I can't wait anymore, it's time. This was more than close enough to home for me. Tell me what to do. I will follow you, I will follow anyone with a plan. I'm not going to debate guns. You can't tell me someone is going to throw a knife into a random child's home and kill them while they eat dinner. Guns are the problem. Enough is enough. https://www.nbcwashington.com/news/local/child-shot-in-prince-georges-county-police-say/2782491/[/quote] First, donate to Demand Justice. We can’t regulate guns with this Republican Supreme Court. Demand Justice is working on fixing that. Second, educate everyone you know that the second amendment interpretation we live under today was MADE UP by Republican Supreme Court justices. Scalia did this, because flooding our streets with guns enriches a major GOP lobby: gun manufacturers. Also, it gets votes for GOP politicians. Gun identity politics (“I love my guns don’t take my guns I don’t care who gets hurt”) gets votes for radical rightwingers who also cut billionaires’ taxes. Many of them wouldn’t be elected if not for the gun-lovers. The Fed Soc Supreme Court justices know this and act accordingly.[/quote] Your “understanding” of Second Amendment jurisprudence is utterly without foundation or understanding of even the most basic foundational documents. As for politically motivated Supreme Court panels making things up, let’s just say there are plenty of quite obvious examples at hand, at least one of which has cost millions of lives. [/quote]
