  1. Yet again, #Minnesota:

    Require actual effective #GunControlNow. And do not let the MNGOP politicians who want to block it remain in the state government.

    Lisa Demuth has an ad talking about her children surviving a school shooting, so I looked it up: The ROCORI school shooting in 2003.

    Her children traumatized …. And she stands in the way of any changes to our gun laws.

    Kids are an acceptable sacrifice.

  2. I learn that the #Minnesota state capitol building will correctly be prohibiting people from bringing knives in - but will still let people with gun permits bring loaded handguns in.

    This follows the shootings of two Minnesota state legislators last year.

    We could have actual effective #GunControlNow instead, USA.

  4. How did Mexican cartels get US military ammo? 🤔

    Maybe, just hear me out, maybe the US is a greater danger to Mexico than the other way round.

  6. Yet again, USA:

    Do not allow this or anything like it.

    Require actual effective #GunControlNow instead.

    And #UnpackTheCourts of the pro-mass-death contingent.

  7. Legendary hiphop group Public Enemy has a new single, "March Madness." But it's not about basketball — it's about gun violence. Here's co-founder Flavor Flav's story for Newsweek about why he is campaigning for stronger gun protection laws. "America is being built on fear. You have people who are scared. And these people are fighting for gun rights to protect themselves. They wouldn't have to protect themselves if all guns were banned," he writes. "Fear is a powerful, short-term motivator. We need to flip it so it can break through to be a positive and valuable resource. Let our fear of losing our children be more powerful than our fear of our next-door neighbor." At the second link, learn more about "March Madness" from the Quietus. Profits from the song will go to The Black Music Action Coalition Human Rights Fund and the anti-gun-violence organization Everytown.

  11. 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.

  21. 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

  22. I wrote a letter to Rep Debbie Dingell, Sen Debbie Stabenow, & Sen Gary Peters on the facts of #MassShootings, #AssaultRifles, #HighCapacityMagazines, and #GunControl and I posted it on Facebook because of 500 char limit here (facebook.com/thedavid.mfano/po).

    Now it is your turn (feel free to copy and paste my letter as you see fit). Contact your representatives by starting at usa.gov/elected-officials

    #Editorial: #Michigan #Republicans are saying they'll vote no on #RagFlag #legislation, "it’s still a due process issue." Complete BS! An #ExtremeRiskOrder is ordered by a JUDGE, & only used when there is PROBABLE CAUSE of harm to self or other. Getting fair treatment through the normal judicial system IS THE DEFINITION OF DUE PROCESS! The #GOP is agst any #GunRegulation for the very sake of being agst ALL #guncontrol.
