Gun violence... Promises made. Promises kept... When was gun violence stopped? Ask republicans.

When Trump accepted the GOP nomination:

"I have a message for all of you: the crime and violence that today afflicts our nation will soon come to an end," he said. "Beginning on January 20th, 2017, safety will be restored."

Shootings continued. Parkland was little more than 4 years ago, and more followed.

Congress snd the States set the laws. What have they done? Very little to nothing.
