It's time to choose between guns and kids
Forget this is not normal. This is what the country has decided to accept as the price for the right to privately own more firearms than any nation on earth. Face it: many of our fellow citizens would rather own inert, deadly guns than bring up living, breathing children.
Our fellow citizens elected the demonstrably corrupt and traitorous occupant of the White House and our corrupt, lily-livered Congress. We've done this to ourselves.
Look in the mirror. This is who we are. We now face the question of who we want to be.

Its long past time for parents of school children and every other American to stand up and demand the passage of sane gun laws. At a minimum, background check loopholes should be closed. There should be a requirement that guns be locked up in the house when not in use. Gun owners should be required to be licensed, and they should be required to carry liability insurance on every firearm they own, equivalent to the liability insurance required by every state on motor vehicles. There should be even stricter licensing requirements to open carry or conceal carry firearms. All gun owners should be required to take firearm safety courses as a requirement to be licensed. Renewing firearms licenses should be required at least as often as states require the renewal of drivers licenses.

All common sense approaches to reasonable and constitutional gun control measures. The only things standing in the way is the NRA and its apologists, and
the demonstrably corrupt and traitorous occupant of the White House and our corrupt, lily-livered Congress.
We must become single-issue voters and replace the NRA bought-and-paid-for politicians at all levels of government if we are to free our country from the epidemic of gun violence that kills our children, relatives, and neighbors.
