Senator Richard Blumenthal (D-CT) said Tuesday on “MSNBC Reports” that after last week’s deadly shooting at Robb Elementary School in Uvalde, TX, “gun violence protection is going to be on the ballot” in the upcoming midterm elections.
Blumenthal said, “This time, it really does feel different because of those shouts, ‘Do something.’ I’ve heard them for the last three days, four days that I’ve been in Connecticut, as I watched Memorial Day ceremonies in parades. There is something about how America has reacted and how shaken my colleagues have been. We’ve never before had five Democrats and five Republicans, as we do right, now talking seriously about substantive and meaningful efforts and proposals that will make America safer and save lives. ”

I feel safer already.
Ya beat me to it!!
Looks like abortion rights can’t gain traction, so the left will try gun issues again.
How many schools will they have copy-cats shoot up by November?
Guns are not violent. The gun is an instrument. People commit violence when their “value system” permits them to. Democrat actions in the past 60 years have destroyed peoples’ value systems.
gun banning and confiscation will be on nov ballot
im good with that
How can this lying stolen valor POS still be in office? Man I REALLY hate this mofo.
Sure it does - just like all the other times that it really did feel different. After Colin Ferguson (Time magazine ran a cover that said "ENOUGH!" and then ran an article that proceeded to demonstrate their total ignorance of anything whatsoever to do with guns).
And after Columbine, and after Parkland, and after the Vegas music festival shooting, and after the shooting at a Republican softball game (OOOPS! - Never mind on that last one).
I need more open range time. Our gun rane 15 miles away is up for sale after 40 years. ENT has me restricted to double ear protection and out doors. I see the chos coming.
When Democrats “run things,” their constituents are blessed with EXCESSIVE AND PERVASIVE CHAOS, CRIME, CARNAGE AND CORRUPTION!
A DEMOCRAT VOTE IS A VOTE FOR MORE CHAOS, CRIME, CARNAGE AND CORRUPTION!
BEST NOT TO VOTE DEMOCRAT!
Translation: “We don’t have the votes.”
The problem is that people who’s value systems have been destroyed, can’t follow that. “Bad gun!” is all they can understand, along with $10 a ballot to stuff Zuckerboxes.
Yes, it will. The question is this: “If some nutcase is shooting people at random in your area, can you afford to wait 90 minutes for the police to ‘rescue’ you?”
And the second question is: Would it make more sense to identify and track potential nut cases or to try to disarm the people trying to protect themselves from the nut cases?

What a little punk.
Our humble trusted representatives need to get all of the mentally defective guns off the streets.
A bill for several trillion dollars would be a start.
Yes../s
No it wont ...inflation will be on the ballot and it will still be raging. This man does not understand that all those guns purchased in the last 2 years were not all bought by MAGA hat wearing rednecks....pssst there were lots Democrats looking to protect themselves as well.
It’s CRIMINAL violence, not gun violence.
Stolen valor. Just looks like he was hit with a flame thrower.
Blumbum SHO got that right! Interesting how more and more Americans (even those of the left persuasion) are seeing how impotent the blue are when push comes to shove....not to even mention how DA’s and their sycophantic soro’s followers can’t seem to prosecute actual criminals because they are so focused on “mom and pop”, Norman Rockwell types. It will indeed be a sad day when though lies, subterfuge and meetings behind closed doors with rino progressive backstabbing polluticians, the American left behind electorate will be left with only two choices...to either trust the ballot box (we can ALL see how that can work out) or the cartridge box, ala the French Revolution. You know... the one where the French actually had the courage to take their elitist leaders to task for the royal screwing the rank and file populace had been enjoying and as a result MANY in their heyday of “power over the people” lost their heads. Figuratively and literally. WE THE PEOPLE are at a very obvious precipice and what We collectively do next will determine the next 50 to 100 years of these United States of America. Choose wisely my Friends.
