I would like to add to please contact your local representative and tell them to support lawful gun ownership for honest citizens.

That’s been a big flaw of Democrats for a long time. Because we’re (as a party) so anti-gun, we’re mostly disarmed.

And as should be increasingly obvious, that’s not great.

Gun violence is mainly mental health related, which is why over half of ALL gun deaths in the country are suicides. I’d love to see either party give a shit about mental health but it’s politically easier to ban guns or tell your constituents “they’re coming for your guns!” (and they’re right.)

Performative outrage from democrats who spend their time trying to deprive themselves of the right to self-defense.
