He’s talking about family members and hope after writing such crap.

America will never get rid of guns because it makes them so much money , NRA play a big part in US politics and also the 2nd amendment . I bet you put a vote out in America to get rid of the gun law you would be shocked with the result blood will always be on America hands .

surely thats just political opportunism ,o rourke was just trying to score points ,with his own base

Salvador Ramos as: Everything we know about Texas school mass shooterThe 18-year-old Uvalde high school student carried out the worst mass shooting at a US elementary school since Sandy Hook, officials said We did it with the TSA after Sept 11. Before that many airports had little or no security at all. Passenger searches were not standardized. I hope we learn a lesson here. Guns arent going away any time soon. Too many people own them. We need a national security for all schools. These incidents happen even in states that have passed strict gun controls. New York is an example. We need security and/or police officers at every school in America! The same way there are armed guards at every airport, bank, casino, etc...this is a massive security failure!
