      You got to understand: the gun lobby is strong, especially at the local level. The amount of money to elect someone locally is pennies compared to nationally.

      Not only that but often these “solutions” like metal detectors have lobbies of their own.

      Gun control doesn’t make the line go up.

      The only way we’ll get gun control is if Luigi’s start making a more common occurrence.

      On the bright side, if an executive order can undo an amendment, the next time a democratic president gets in this should be fun

      You know, assuming we have elections

        Dems never have the balls to wield their power effectively. They could have a supermajority in both houses and still wouldn’t even be able to create an honorary holiday like notional french fry day or some other meaningless gesture.
