Sen. Joe Manchin (D-W.Va.) on Tuesday lamented the lack of Senate support for tougher gun laws following a mass shooting in Texas hours earlier but rejected the notion of eliminating the filibuster for the purpose of passing such a bill.
Manchin noted that he has three grandchildren similar in age to the victims at Robb Elementary School in Uvalde, Texas, where at least 14 kids and one teacher were shot and killed.

Democrats love them some ‘commonsense’ reforms. How about some commonsense child mutilation reforms? Huh?

Democrats can take their “common sense” rhetoric and shove it up their collective asses sideways.
Common Sense should mean Remove Democrats from ALL positions of ANY level of authority!

I actually don’t have a problem with his bill. But, it would never stop there.

wouldn’t matter if they did. Because it would be unconstitutional.

Manchin has been trying to pass his bill kfor years but both sides stop him because for the far left its not far enough.

Of course you’ll go hide in your corner after making your prediction of doom without wanting to have risk of consequence for being wrong.
So one month from now is June 24. Are your ready to put some consequences where your doomer mouth is? If not, then it’s pretty clear that your just a concern troll.
To: ChicagoConservative27
Common sense tells me that today, millions of guns sat idle in homes all across the nation and caused no harm whatsoever.
But one lone nutcase caused unspeakable horror.
