Fuck the NRA

The NRA is a terrorist organization that is holding the US hostage.  The gun laws outweigh a citizen's right to live.  Fuck you.  BAN ASSAULT WEAPONS. CAMPAIGN FINANCE REFORM NOW.  NRA should be banned from funding our lawmakers.

"With this sort of firepower, the gunman didn’t even need to have good marksmanship or anything more than a basic understanding of his weapons. All he needed to do was pick up a loaded gun, point it toward the helpless people in the distance and pull the trigger until it was empty, discard the spent rifle and pick up another one."

From this article.

Bess Kalb responds to thoughts and prayers tweets from law makers funded by the NRA.  "God have mercy on your NRA-kept souls"

The certainty of more shootings from 2012

Why a Congressional Ban on Bump Stocks is unlikely from Oct 7, 2017.  A week after our worse mass shooting to date.


A mass shooting increases the number of enacted laws that loosen gun restrictions by 75 percent in states with Republican-controlled legislatures. We find no significant effect of mass shootings on laws enacted when there is a Democrat-controlled legislature.

From Mass shootings don't lead to inaction--The lead to loosening gun restrictions.

The Autopsies for the the Victims of the Las Vegas Mass Shooting.

We are averaging one school shooting every 60 hours in 2018














When is it going to stop?  
What are we going to do?

To those who solely focus on the 2nd amendment. You have the right to bear arms of 1791 when this amendment was written: Brown Bess, Muskets, Rifles and flintlock pistols. We must ban assault weapons. These are weapons of war.

Call to expel McConnell

Senate Major "Leader" Mitch McConnell is a threat to the health of our Nation.
He must be expelled from his position and Congress.
He did not tell the people of the U.S.A. that our election process was under attack when he became aware of it in late 2016.
His obstruction during his time in Congress has earned the previous Congress the worst in recorded history.
He receives dark money that must be investigated.
He is now working in secret to pass a health insurance bill for our nation.  We will not know what is in the bill until it is signed.  Our elected Democratic leaders will not be privy to information contained in this bill nor be allowed to add a single remark.
This is not Democracy, only kleptocracy.

This expulsion of McConnell should be akin to those Congressman that were expelled for supporting the confederacy.
Or perhaps similar to Senator William Blount of Tennessee?
Maybe the man who said his worst day of his career was when a bill that had to do with Campaign Finance Reform was signed into law will succumb to the fate of Senator James Simmons of Rhode Island.

Either way, it needs to be done.  And as you can see it has been done.
Congress, take out the trash.

Campaign Finance reform is crucial



Citizen's United must be overturned.  We need to get the influence of money out of our government.  The poster boy is Mitch McConnell, Senator "Leader".
