She said the legislation included universal background checks and a ban on gun purchases for Americans with a history of hate crimes.
The congresswoman said it’s the Senate that hasn’t taken up the issue, preventing the bill from going any further.
“I hope we can find unity on fundamental pieces of legislation. Not to limit their second amendment rights, and not to change their ability to own a gun. But we have to have this debate in this country,” Escobar said. |

Penalize everybody for the bad acts of an infinitesimal minority.
Yeah, THAT's good idea.

TO REMEMBER |
| "Let us contemplate our forefathers, and posterity, and resolve to maintain the rights bequeathed to us from the former, for the sake of the latter. The necessity of the times, more than ever, calls for our utmost circumspection, deliberation, fortitude, and perseverance. Let us remember that `if we suffer tamely a lawless attack upon our liberty, we encourage it, and involve others in our doom.' It is a very serious consideration...that millions yet unborn may be the miserable sharers of the event." --Samuel Adams, speech in Boston, 1771 |
