Trump has been an outspoken Second Amendment advocate who has shot down talks about new legislation under his administration, even in the wake of the Las Vegas attack in October that killed 58 people in the deadliest mass shooting in modern U.S. history. He was endorsed by the NRA during his presidential campaign, and he spoke at the NRA convention in April.
Hockley ended her Facebook post with a message to the White House officials.
“Trump, LaPierre and Sanders are all parents. While they ignorantly partied and remained uninformed on an issue that kills thousands of Americans every year, I was crying myself to sleep. While they got the chance to kiss their children goodnight, I kissed the urn holding my beautiful boy's ashes," she said.
There have been 1,576 mass shootings since Sandy Hook in December 2012, according to Vox. At least 1,788 people have died in those mass shootings, and 6,333 have been wounded. Meanwhile, more than 100 attempts at gun control reform have failed in Congress in that time.
------------------------
1.Truley, Pres Trump advocates defending you and your family with firearms.
2.Liberals make another attempt to bring out more death statistics, even though this article was written on another incident....but not one word that all
shooting VICTIMS WERE UNARMED!
3.Liberal hockley wants to imply that NRA and mass shootings are related by placing them in the same paragraph together .
4. It is true that by Pres Trump advocates defending you and your family with firearms, and that NRA endorsed Trump as a candidate, since Pres Trump and NRA BOTH ADVOCATE defending you and your family with fire arms.
5. It is true that Trump confirmed his beliefs while at the NRA convention.......much the same as all anti-self defense groups and Fake News fell in line with hillary in wanting to disarm America.
Why are democrats so
uncaring about protecting our family with fire arms? Why do democrats always take the side of criminals, while wanting to make the US population
unarmed victims?
5. Liberal hockley wants us to believe that NRA parents and people who want to protect their family are ignorant, etc when advocating protecting their family with firearms. Liberal hockley tosses in a final emotional statement
about her personal tragedy.
6. Vox, whoever they are.... may define mass shootings as two or more deaths.....but if Vox gets numbers from Brady campaign, instead of using
official govt numbers, then Vox, liberals and Brady ignore the real numbers,
and choose to use their own numbers.
7. If 20 new gun laws have failed in 5 years, the writer may be ignoring that liberals bring back the same "disarm America under any pretense" laws year after year. Liberals also ignore that most voters want to protect their families as another reason gun rights laws fail.
Also is ignored is that 43 STATES now have concealed carry laws in one form or another....and that may be the reason for decreasing deaths over the years when people are allowed to defend themselves and their family.
