For gun fanatics, no cost is too high in service to their bogus “freedom.” Unless and until decent Americans have enough and actually show up to vote out the enablers, the carnage will only continue, and taxpayers will foot the bill.

Appeals to their empathy won't work because they have none. These are people who have waited all their lives for a Trump and he gave them permission to embrace their hatred and be proud of it. The election of '24 is an election of our lifetimes and our democracy and way of life is on the line. Everyone on the Left needs to vote for Democratic candidates without excuse and that may be asking a lot. I've learned in my 53+ years of voting that too often too many Democrats are fickle and undependable voters. Those on the Left need to see the big picture while there still is a big picture to see and vote like there is no tomorrow because if we do not purge the nation of this maga cult plague, there just may be no tomorrow.

Our only hope is there are enough decent Americans to vote out the opportunists and psychopaths who really don't care.

The second amendment has cursed the conscience of the United States.

But your title sounds like the start of a possible King book. His passion on the subject could rattle some conscience with the evil of assault rifles and the interdiction with the money thirsty ghouls in Washington, Steve, I hope you’re reading.
