Senators postponed consideration of legislation limiting gun violence...

Senators aren't God. They can't pass legislation that limits gun violence.

They can only pass legislation that takes guns out of the hands of law-abiding citizens.

The people most likely to commit "gun violence" will still have theirs.

"Senators aren't God. They can't pass legislation that limits gun violence."

Actually they can. But effective laws have zip to do with gun ownership/registration/background checks. EFFECTIVE things include "three strikes laws", boosted sentencing for commission of a crime if a gun is involved, and actually enforcing the existing gun laws. Most "gun crime" cases these days are plea-bargained away by DA's.

and now in other News...
Senators are debating the pros and cons of adding more daylight to each day.....Most agree but the Bat and other nocturnal species lobby have made a strong case for themselves citing undue hardship should they act on it...
the legislation has since been tabled for further study and a Committee has been formed to study the matter in depth...
