People die everyday, the man who did it was a murderer, if guns weren't so
readily available he'd still have killed but he would almost certainly have killed far less
innocent people.

At least someone in Congress has the balls to stand up to the NRA, and all those 2nd Admendment nut fucking cases.

Rep. Seth Moulton (D-Mass.) said Monday that he won’t participate in a moment of silence on the House floor for victims of Sunday night's deadly mass shooting Las Vegas.

“As after #Orlando, I will NOT be joining my colleagues in a moment of silence on the House Floor that just becomes an excuse for inaction,” Moulton tweeted Monday.

“Now is not a moment for silence; it's a time for action.”

Moulton was one of several Democratic lawmakers who refused to take part in a moment of silence in the House for the victims of the deadly mass shooting at Pulse nightclub in Orlando, Fla., in June 2016.

Moulton has pushed for Congress to pass gun control legislation in the past — he was one of many Democrats who held a sit-in on the House floor after the Pulse shooting to try and force Speaker Paul Ryan (R-Wis.) to bring gun control legislation up for a vote, which of course didn't happen, because their a bunch of cunts, paid for bitches of the NRA

Because shooting yourself in the head with a gun is not a gun death.

.......according to new mortality data released this month by the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC). In 2014, the age-adjusted death rate for both firearms (including homicides, suicides and accidental deaths) and motor vehicle events (car crashes, collisions between cars and pedestrians, etc) stood at 10.3 deaths per 100,000 people.

..... Gun homicide rates have actually fallen in recent years, but those gains have been offset by rising gun suicide rates. Today, suicides account for roughly two out of every three gun deaths.

Link for the falling gun homicide rates from the Washington Post articled linked below just in case..

If a gun kills you, yes, its a gun death.....otherwise you are just in Chicago. Every ten weeks is the Vegas equivalent but on repeat every ten weeks for the last 4 decades or so; wonder why that isn't brought up more....especially gun control....what is Chicago's problem and what is Mandalay Bay's for that matter?
Please elucidate.....
