First, let me state that I want NO ONE to be the victim of a nut with a gun! That said, perhaps our politicians in their protected bubble in DC learned what it's like to be the children and teachers at Sandy Hook, movie goers at a theater, patrons at a night club, co-workers at a Christmas party, teenagers at a high school, patients at a Planned Parent clinic, etc., etc. Perhaps the next time they support violent rhetoric out of the mouth of a candidate for office with their applause, they will think twice. Perhaps the next time they consider legislation concerning guns, and mental health; they will think twice. Most of us regular folks don't have security details to protect us or police escorts everywhere we go. The more politicians in Washington, DC understand what it's like to be a regular citizen trying to live and thrive in this USA, maybe their legislation will actually help everyone and benefit communities everywhere, instead of just looking after the pocketbooks of the 1%!
