..to more gun control. Seems everyone is already debating gun control, why waste the keyboard clicks? Ban this, license that, permit this, waiting period the other thing. Meanwhilethe votes in Congress are nowhere close to being able to support the flimsiest of gun control scams.

it is possible to change it this November, eliminating filibuster in January and pass comprehensive gun legislation, voting rights and women rights federal laws literally within weeks. Yes, SC will overturn all of it in its entirety but we will then have no choice but to expand SC.
