Why Democrats Want More Gun Control, Is It Lack of Personal Self Control?
The bulk of all gun control legislation being proposed in government today, at either the state or federal level, is sponsored by Democrats. The 2012 Democratic National Party Platform even had an entire section calling for;
“a honest, open national conversation about firearms. We can focus on effective enforcement of existing laws, especially strengthening our background check system, and we can work together to enact commonsense improvements–like reinstating the assault weapons ban and closing the gun show loophole–so that guns do not fall into the hands of those irresponsible, law-breaking few.”
Ok, so who are those “irresponsible, law-breaking few” that have committed the most offensive mass murders and assassinations in history of the USA? Turn out it is mostly all registered Democrats or those claiming their party affiliation as Democrat.
