    how many 'good guys with guns' were on the scene at a public parade? 🤔
    I'm guessing about triple the number of victims... 💔🙄

  2. 1 year after the #Uvalde #GunSlaughter just remember that #Republicans are doing everything they can to protect the guns and Gun Industry profits, no matter how many school kids are slaughtered.

    Furthermore, this #Texas #legislation will not go far as it probably will not make it for a vote on the House floor, let alone getting to the state Senate or Governors desk. Texas has some of the most lax #GunLaws. You don't have to pass a background check to buy a gun, it's legal to carry a concealed weapon without a permit, and there are no laws to prevent most people convicted of domestic abuse from possessing a #firearm.

    #Editorial: this #legislation in #Texas is a half measure. First, #AssaultRifles should be banned all together! Second, ALL #guns should have a higher minimum age, not just #AR15's. Third, the minimum age for all guns should be 25 years old young adult's brains are still developing until their mid to late 20's.

    #News: There was cheering during a #Texas House committee meeting this week in Austin. Two Republicans broke with their colleagues and voted with Democrats to advance a bill to raise the minimum age to buy #AR15-style rifles from 18 to 21.

  12. Less than 5 days ago, I wrote a letter to Rep Dingell, Sen Stabenow, & Sen Peters on the #MassShooting in Cleveland, Texas & the facts of #MassShootings, #AssaultRifles, #HighCapacityMagazines, & #GunControl. Since then there have been 17 more shootings. The avg is now 1.74/day.

    Today I sent it again for #AllenTexas. (see first letter @ facebook.com/thedavid.mfano/po)

    Now it is your turn. Contact your representatives by going to usa.gov/elected-officials
