This is a link. Ok... not hundreds... keep arguing the semantics friends. Hold fast to the details like they matter. It's lunacy anyway you want to slice it. And it will not stand. Countries with this amount of gun violence are at war with someone. Or they are failed states. No civilized country deals with so much tragedy on a daily basis... 40K automobile deaths, 64K drug overdose deaths, 30K gun accidents, 50K deliberate gun incidents including suicides... we aren't China with a billion + people to cull down to something manageable. We don't have 10's of thousands of productive young Americans to waste like this. It will not come to a good end. We are going to miss the missing one day. And you know how Americans love to play the 'blame game'. I wonder who will get the blame when we finally get it that we've $%$#ed up, royally.
you use the term 'hundreds' but it's my fault for holding you to that?
how odd.
details do matter, or we'd never use them or mention them. I have no idea why you've expanded your rants to encompass auto deaths and drug overdoses.
Incorrect.......... your own link says Gun rights groups, not just the NRA. There are MANY gun rights groups and they all donate to politicians just like any other group of people form groups to donate and lobby.
If you have a problem with that then you need to ban ALL lobbying in politics on both sides. AND.., 3 million dollars (if correct) spread out over the years and groups is not much money in comparison to a lot of other lobby amounts over the same period of time.
It doesn't matter! We're talking over a hundred thousand dollars in many cases and millions to several of the most influential GOP members....
Update- Armed sheriff ,Scott Peterson, assigned at Stoneman Douglas did not engage shooter and is now retiring.
CNN is reporting this sad development in this tragedy. Not exactly a portrait in courage but another reason these assault weapons need the be outlawed.
The FBI agents who ignored both contacts about Cruz wanting to shoot up the school should resign as well. As should the school board that enacted the policy so that criminals like Cruz would not be charged with crimes & instead stay in school.
