Vote for tougher gun laws

Posted August 01, 2012 4:40 am

What does it take to change our weak gun laws in America? What does it take to start an end to senseless killings of innocent Americans by the hands of deranged semiautomatic gun toters? It takes courage. It takes courage on the part of the presidential candidates and all politicians running for office.

When will enough be enough? It wasn’t enough to kill a judge, wound a congresswoman, kill students, kill innocent Americans. Nothing is going change, until we, as voters, demand our leaders start protecting citizens from being massacred as a result of weak gun control. Presidential candidates, don’t give us your song and dance about how terrible the latest killings are. Take a stand for strong gun control.

Americans, vote for the candidate who has the courage to change our flabby gun laws.
