Sixteen years after the tragic, horrific shootings at Virginia Tech, the 2020-2021 Democratic “trifecta” made some progress in passing gun violence prevention bills. But nationwide, the scourge of gun violence continues or even worsens every year. Why? Simple: because Republicans refuse to act, and if anything work to WEAKEN efforts at curbing gun violence. The answer: elect Democrats up and down the ballot and press them to take strong action. Unless, that is, you think it’s ok to live in the only “advanced” nation on earth that tolerates this insanity.
