We need thug control, not gun control.
She lives in California, so she has gun control. I want freedom, risks and all.
I want looney control. Lock the crazed up.
Kalifornia already has “gun control”.
It’s already illegal to shoot people.
She’ll be at the SOTU, guest of Kamala Harris.
Lady, you HAVE gun control. What you do not have is heart control.
Benjamin Franklin once said: “Those who would give up essential Liberty, to purchase a little temporary Safety, deserve neither Liberty nor Safety.”

Civics 101 lady. So you don’t want folks feeling bad about your defenseless child being killed by someone who, despite ANY laws you may pass could still have taken their lives? Take out the guys at the door, chain doors, gas cans to light it up and who,would we blame? Match company? Gas container company? Chain company? Lock company? Big oil?
What she meant was she wants Guns banned.
Murder is against the law
