I’ve been crying on and off for 2 days now. The carnage was senseless. There is absolutely no reason why any ordinary person should own or have access to an assault weapon. When are we going to say ENOUGH??!!!
I called our Representative and the retired Santa Cruz President of the League of Women Voters this morning. I now realize that the only way to get Congress to act on what we, the people, want is to mobilize citizen groups.
A vast majority of our elected representatives in the Senate and the House have had their campaigns funded and consequently, have been intimidated by the NRA. We, the people, need to force Congress to re-enact the ban on assault weapons. THERE ARE NO MORE EXCUSES!!! There are no good reasons why an ordinary citizen should need an assault weapon. End of story.
Re-Enact The Ban On Assault Weapons Now!!
