Bonus Tweets from Stephen King on gun control, plus one about his super-cute dog, which he refers to as 'the Thing of Evil':
Oregon shooter owned 13 guns, all legally purchased. Folks, this has to stop.

Write your reps, especially those who are in the NRA's pocket. Time to outlaw mags of more than eight bullets.

Molly, aka the Thing of Evil, has taken a paws-on selfie for all her Twitter fans, and forced me to post it. Or else.

You make no sense.
What are her exact policy prescriptions?
All I see is:
As Hillary Clinton mulls running for president in 2016, she has been careful to shy away from broad, sweeping policy declarations. But not when she delivered harsh criticism of gun culture in America and denounced the idea that "anybody can have a gun, anywhere, at any time."
Clinton didn't dispute Americans' right to own guns. But she said access to guns in the U.S. had grown "way out of balance."
"We've got to rein in what has become an almost article of faith that anybody can have a gun anywhere, anytime," she said.
"And I don't believe that is in the best interest of the vast majority of people."
Citing a number of shootings that arose from minor arguments over loud music or texting, she drew a comparison: "That's what happens in the countries I've visited where there is no rule of law and no self-control." She added: "That is something that we cannot just let go without paying attention."
A: I want to give local communities the authority over determining how to keep their citizens safe. This case you’re referring to is before the Supreme Court.
Q: But what do you support?
A: I support sensible regulation that is consistent with the constitutional right to own and bear arms.
Sounds a lot like Bernie, evenh Pugh he is considered to be a "gun nut" LOL
