Here is a reason why,

I don't believe in knee-jerk reactions. I don't believe in making policy based on emotion. I believe in making policy based on facts.

Here are the facts:

Many mass shootings happen where gun control laws that are proposed would not have stopped the event.

Many mass shootings involve mental illness. (There is something that can be tackled without infringing upon Constitutional Rights)

Many mass shootings have warning signs if people would speak up.

Those are the facts.

Let's look at Florida. There were MANY warning signs about Mr. Cruz. If people had spoken up, if attention had been given, we would not be burying 17 people this week. He posted things about school shootings on social media. He regularly hurt animals for fun. Yet, nobody did anything.

The problem is our culture, not guns. The problem is not the NRA or the 2nd Amendment which, YES, was to give Americans weapons of war, not just a hunting rifle.

The reason that nothing ever changes @Bill_Coley @C_M_ is because after the emotion leaves and things come into focus, cooler more logical heads prevail.
