About the problem. The country is paralyzed to act and has been for decades now. Sad and depressing.

The Federal courts are overturning every law made anywhere that tries to reduce the carnage. Gun access is only becoming MORE unfettered.

We're generations away from a change. Most of us won't live to see anything shift.

The 2nd Amendment is a suicide pact.

Congrats to Charlie Sykes for waking up.
