Chucky Schumer is a snake. He finally admits for years that his agenda was to take away the 2nd amendment to the constituion and now that he has lost he wants to be reasonable? The 2nd amendment isn't about hunting. He can take his east coast idea of reasonable and stick it.

The nation continues to be shocked by shootings that should never happen. But this shock is much too selective. How about the unnecessary shootings that the nation exports throughout the world via the lucrative armaments industry and the armed occupation of much of the world?
I know–don't tell me. This is off the table, being the stuff of national security to say nothing of jobs. And we can plead ignorance, as long as someone like Bradley Manning does not blow the whistle. I think some are outraged about Manning because he may blow their cover. It was Christ who gave us that cover and pleading when he said on the cross: Forgive them Father because they know not what they do.

Ours is a very sick culture. It just isn't going to change until we want it to change. People live in fear and with hate. Too many think guns will solve problems and protect. The culture thrives on hate and violence.
Is this where and how you really want to live?
