In the history of the Supreme Court, there has been one actual attempted assassination. This latest thing seems pretty lame so far as an attempted murder. 5 Federal court justices have been killed by firearms.

Every year almost 8000 children and teens are victims of firearm violence. 1800 of them die.
Almost 1000 are murdered.

Now, who is it you think needs immediate action by Congress?
