Gun Control Now!

"Orlando. Sandy Hook. Aurora. San Bernardino.

What do these horrific shootings have in common? The AR-15.

This assault weapon was used to murder at least 50 people in Orlando, 26 people in Sandy Hook, 12 people in Aurora, and 14 people in San Bernardino.

Right now, such a mass-killing weapon is available for purchase on-line, at trade shows, and at gun brokers across our nation. It has become the weapon of choice for mass shooters.

The AR-15 and all assault weapons like it have no place in our cities and towns. No place on our streets.

We need to ban all assault weapons now, while moving quickly to enact commonsense gun reform." (via MoveOn.org)

Being a New Orleans resident, I read about gun related violence practically every single day of the week! There is obviously a serious Gun Control issue in the United States, or lack there of. Especially in this city. The U.S. Senate and President Obama must act against the National Rifle Association's strong hold on the issue and the 2nd Amendment. Too many lives are unnecessarily lost every year in the United States due to the fact that guns are easily accessible to dangerous and mentally unstable people. Enough is enough! Gun Control Now!!
