Carl Miller of Chippewa Falls was trying to make a serious point about the frequency of gun violence in the U.S.
“It used to be the shooting of the month. Then the shooting of the week. Now, has anyone heard, has there been a shooting today?” he asked at Monday’s listening session held by U.S. Rep. Ron Kind (D-La Crosse) at the Chippewa Valley Technical College campus in Chippewa Falls.
Kind, who represents the 3rd Congressional District, said there are things the government can do to lessen gun violence, including requiring universal background checks of people buying firearms.
He said absent background checks, you don’t know who is getting the weapons.

"Kind, who represents the 3rd Congressional District, said there are things the government can do to lessen gun violence".
Yes. There is something the government can do to lessen gun violence. Lock up the criminals.
It is the criminals, stupid!
Gun laws and restrictions only affect law abiding citizens. Criminals don't obey the law and they don't get their guns through legal channels. |
