Friend, in the span of two weeks, 10 Black people were massacred in a grocery store in Buffalo, and 19 children and two teachers were murdered in their elementary school in Texas. In both killings, young men used semi-automatic rifles to mercilessly shoot down their victims. Although both incidents have dominated the news cycle, they represent just a fraction of the death toll from the gun violence epidemic that continues to worsen. Meanwhile, Republicans and the NRA fight harder and harder to keep more guns on the street and continue to use the filibuster to block any and all gun reform legislation from passing.
We live daily amid a brutal gun violence epidemic, but we cannot pass gun reform legislation so long as the GOP can use the racist filibuster to block progress and critical health safety. Thank you for fighting with us, Mayra Souza, Daily Kos.
