I do NOT support the NRA's agenda of a gun in every hand. I want sensible, effective control of who gets a gun and what kind they get. I want the CDC to be given the green light to investigate gun violence. I want automatic assault weapons off the market. I want a waiting period before receiving a purchased gun. I want mandatory gun safety training for each gun purchase. I want our representatives to take a serious approach to gun ownership that protects the average citizen at a concert, or restaurant or school. One persons right to own a gun is not more important than our safety. I know that you disagree with all this. However, please note it in your constituent comments notebook and keep it in mind when considering legislation.
