Trump to address NRA today in Dallas. They deserve each other.

MGB_There should never have been an end date on the assault weapons ban. Thank you, Bill Clinton.

Militias have been superseded by the National Guard. There is no logic behind the amendment or at least in restricting assault weapons to Guard members and veterans, with penalties against letting young people use them.

It is not Gary that sells to Chicago gang bangers, it is the rest of Illinois. Want to stop this? Legalize drugs. All drugs. And provide treatment for mental illness on demand by individuals or their families.

There are plenty of common sense reforms and even more ways to get the guns, from simply buying up gun stores and all their inventory to house to house health and safety inspections to take guns out of violent neighborhoods (no criminal charges, just seizures) to forcing gun makers selling to the Government to not sell to private entities. We might even disarm police, especially if they have incidents of harming unarmed people.

No Republican would ever go with any of it, which is the best reason not to vote for them at any level.

As for Trump, his name is not appropriate in serious discussions not involving impeachment. Another reason to fire all Republicans. Even the pro-life ones. Especially the pro-life ones because their propaganda is as toxic to the truth as the NRA’s.
