Kerri Harris’ Common Sense Gun Violence Reduction Agenda
One puppy dies in an overhead compartment and the US Senate immediately considers legislation to protect these “family members.” One deadly school shooting per week since Jan 1, 2018 and Tom Carper doesn’t lift a goddam finger.
These common sense items proposed by Kerri Harris are proven to reduce gun violence in states where they have been implemented.
@3. I have long believed that George Zimmerman was motivated by the desire to know what it felt like to kill someone. Then it seems like the entire state of Florida conspired to exonerate him.
Even if Carper supported these proposals (and he has not, to put it mildly, prioritized these issues during his endless years in government), he does not have the energy or the mind to forcefully advocate on their behalf.
I hope that everybody who supports the March For Our Lives recognizes the stark difference between the two D candidates for US Senate, and acts accordingly.
Carper only cares about Corporate welfare, protecting big banks & medical establishments, big Pharma and his four government pensions. Nothing else matters. He is a government leach that’s been around too long.
Just sayin’
Historical view on arms in America
https://www.politico.com/magazine/story/2018/03/24/first-us-school-shooting-gun-debate-217704
“During the colonial era, Americans lived under a gun regulation regime inherited from English common law. That tradition held that individuals were obligated to retreat from armed conflicts, not stand your ground.
English common law also prohibited traveling armed in populated areas, unless one were assisting in the preservation of the peace.
After the American Revolution, however, this common English legal legacy fractured, producing radically different legal regimes for regulating firearms in the slave-owning South and elsewhere.
Outside of the South, many states emulated Massachusetts’s broad prohibition on public carry. But in the South, things were different. Kentucky judges, in particular, had adopted a more libertarian reading of the Constitution that rejected most forms of regulation as a violation of the right to bear arms.

I tried twice to post a comment. Nothing was posted.
The young don’t give a damn what party you in…its whether you take bucks from the NRA and support their alt right agenda. They were brilliant, not to permit anyone over 18 to speak, or any political hacks. They know what their doing, its fantastic. Carper, Coons and all those state representatives who refuse change will be voted out.
Sorry Nancy. Don;t know why those went into spam.
She has my support!
That’s the spirit…
