Well, why don't we start observing a moment of silence for every auto accident death. Or drug overdose death? Or any other death?

All this is all just grandstanding and pushing the 'grab the guns" agenda of the Left.

Congress would be silent all the time life they included every violent death in Chicago, Baltimore, Oakland, etc.

These liberals know no end to their idiocy.

Scary words: “Something’s got to be done about this!”

These words precede so many stupid laws. Just because something is terrible, doesn’t mean that anything needs to be done and definitely doesn’t mean a law needs to be passed.

Crimes, accidents, and disasters happen daily. Some are acts of nature, some are freak coincidences, some are the result of human stupidity, some are the result of malice. In 99% of cases, there was already a law that someone broke that resulted in the bad outcome. Piling on more laws is not going to fix that.

“These liberals know no end to their idiocy.”

But it feels so good to do these empty meaningless gestures.
