"Vice President Kamala Harris speaks at gun violence victims event" [ < 1 min]
by ABCNews
The greatest threat to our lives today?
Not a foreign enemy but #Ammosexuals aka Republicans & those who keep voting for them
They have no idea what the 2nd Amendment really means
They worship guns over humans
No #GunReformNow
No #AssaultWeaponsBan
They worship DEATH over LIFE
Listening to Mea Culpa (Gun Violence Soars: Enough Already, Donald! + A Conversation with Fred Guttenberg): https://pdst.fm/e/chrt.fm/track/537745/pscrb.fm/rss/p/arttrk.com/p/MMN23/prfx.byspotify.com/e/claritaspod.com/measure/mgln.ai/e/1058/traffic.megaphone.fm/MTH1600066974.mp3?updated=1726336608
Today on Mea Culpa, I am honored to speak with Fred Guttenberg, who became a powerful voice for gun reform after the tragic death of his 14-year-old daughter, Jaime, in the Parkland mass shooting in 2018. Fred’s public journey began at a vigil where his moving words captured the nation's attention and ignited his relentless advocacy for gun safety. In our discussion, Fred and I will explore the significance of the upcoming election for gun violence prevention, reflect on recent events like the school shooting in Georgia, and examine the support he has received from Vice President Kamala Harris, as well as his arrest during Trump’s third State of the Union Address.

Vice President #Harris: I have personally prosecuted #homicide cases. I have personally looked at autopsies. I have personally seen what #AssaultWeapons do to the human body. I feel very strongly that it is consistent with the #SecondAmendment and your right to own a #gun to also say we need an #AssaultWeaponsBan. They're literally tools of #war
@AltEvil Sadly, the problem is kids going to school and not coming home at all because they are shot dead in the classroom or hallway. That’s largely the fault of #Republicans who won’t enact common sense #gun safety laws such as #AssaultWeaponsBan.
"The suspect’s father told investigators this week he had purchased the gun used in the killings as a holiday present for his son in December 2023, according to two law enforcement sources."
This is where more comprehensive background checks and a reinstated #AssaultWeaponsBan need to be implemented, at the least.

An "assault politicians" ban can only happen one way: at the polls.
Dear Democratic Leaders.
The shooter was a registered Republican.
So you can bypass the needless, unnecessary days of handwringing about the “tone of the rhetoric”and restart campaigning full throttle against Trump, MAGA, and Project 2025 again.
It is also a good moment to campaign against assault weapons too.
#SOTU24 President Biden on #AssaultWeaponsBan and the 2nd Amendment
Meanwhile — meanwhile, my predecessor told the NRA he’s proud he did nothing on guns when he was President.
After another shooting in Iowa recently, he said — when asked what to do about it, he said, just “get over it.

State Senator Roland Gutierrez is reiterating his call for an assault weapons ban in the wake of Thursday’s report from the U.S. Justice Department about the mass shooting at Robb Elementary School in Uvalde.

JUST HOURS BEFORE the #UNLV shooting, Senate Republicans voted down the #AssaultWeaponsBan. At a rate of TWO MASS SHOOTINGS PER DAY, it was no coincidence. https://www.msnbc.com/alex-wagner-tonight/watch/-it-was-a-matter-of-time-shooter-terrorizes-unlv-as-republicans-block-new-gun-reforms-199610949730
Ban
Forced to stay
California's assault weapons
Shot down by court's decision
Peaceful state

Better late than never. More like this.
MSNBC: Rep. Jared Golden (D-ME) calls his opposition to an #AssaultWeaponsBan a mistake after deadly mass shooting in his district.
Golden: I have opposed efforts to ban deadly weapons of war like the assault rifle he used to carry out this crime. The time has now come for me to take responsibility for this failure. Which is why I now call on the US congress to ban assault rifles..for those who have been harmed, I ask for forgiveness" #GunViolence
I will say this out loud.
Arguably, Putin/Russian money laundered through the gun lobby as campaign donations to the Republican Party, preventing any robust federal legislation on guns such as an assault weapons ban, has arguably been their most successful domestic terrorism operation against the USA. They have found a way to attack us from within.

@GottaLaff Oh my gosh. This is an unending nightmare in the US.
We need an #AssaultWeaponsBan now!
The #AssaultWeaponsBan expired in 2004. After the mass killing at #SandyHook Elementary School in 2012, in which 20 first-graders & 6 adults were gunned down, #Feinstein spearheaded an unsuccessful effort to renew the #law.
#Biden, who recruited her to serve on the #Senate #Judiciary Cmte, called her “a pioneering American. …There’s no better example of her skillful legislating & sheer force of will than when she turned passion into purpose, & led the fight to ban assault weapons.”
Of all the #legislation that crossed #Feinstein’s #Senate desk, the #bill w/which she was most associated was the #AssaultWeaponsBan that President Bill #Clinton signed into #law in 1994. The uphill effort showcased Feinstein at her most determined. When a more snr senator, Larry Craig (R-ID), questioned her experience on #gun issues, she reminded him that she had become mayor of #SanFrancisco as a result of a double assassination. “I know something about what #firearms can do,” she said.
