pleasant responses.

So how do you feel about supporting EveryTown and/or MDA? They have an agenda that closely matches what you've said you you strongly support. Of course no agenda will be 100% perfect but will a 90/10 split be acceptable?

The Gun Control movement has morphed into a Gun Safety movement. Only a tiny fraction of the movement want to ban all guns (tho I've come to the conclusion that semi-auto with interchangeable magazines are a bad idea). Partly because we realize that a ban is impossible and frankly not desirable.

Think you can join us?
