Not unexpected. Unfortunately, the only likely winner here will be gun manufacturers. There will be plenty of idiots who will go out and buy more guns, guns they may never even use, in anticipation of restrictions that won't be coming.
Exactly.
I hate the fact that the NRA and the gun nuts always win. They march to the fife of "give me liberty or give me death" while people are getting cut down in churches. It's depressing that America doesn't want to change on this. The NRA is blaming the pastor, Fox News is blaming atheists. I don't know what to do anymore. There is no political will to do anything, and it's so depressing and aggravating at the same time. People are dying, and these a**holes are playing politics.
Martin O'Malley summed it up perfectly for me: "I'm pissed."
For me personally, these horrible recurring acts of violence wear me down, a lot, I feel so helpless to stop them due to no matter who we elect, what laws we support, they never make it anywhere due to the ignorance of so many people in this country of how to fix these problems, and the gun lobbys tight hold on our politics.
