90% who claim to be "pro gun progressives" are actually republicans and the other 10% don't even really care about politics.

Make them go there and see it and smell it first hand. Then come back and tell us how we shouldn't do something about guns falling into the wrong hands.

She slammed that Repuke Gun Rights Jerk, saying as Mayor she went to the MORGUE and saw victims of assault weapons. She put her fingers in their bullot holes. HAVE THESE gun rights nuts ever done that? I doubt it. Scared straight for gun nuts?????? I can you I saw as a 6 year old what gun shots can do to a bus drivers face and brains. How many adult gun owners can say that? The bus driver I saw shot was a big adult man. I don't want to think about what a child that same age I was would look like with mulitiple shots. I had nightmares for days after Sandy Hook, as both a child survivor, and as a public school pre-k TA.

Maybe we need to require every gun owner to visit a MORGUE and see hat Nancy Pelosi has seen.

I know some have spoken out and if they want to use the photos of their kids to make the case, they should be allowed.

The courage of Emmett Till's mother showed in allowing an open casket for all of the world to see the brutality changed the world. This could do the same, but each families' privacy and wishes should be respected. The do not need to be revictimized.
