Oh, cmon. Banning rifles for 18-20 year olds and "gun violence restraining orders" has been on the Bloomberg and Giffords radar for years. Their strategy is to focus on small winnable bites like background checks and GVROs and make incremental progress. Organized knee jerk campaigns is what the anti gunners have done for years. This was nothing new.
NRA got complacent because they thought they had Trump in the bag. They totally got their shit handed to them IN FLORIDA of all places. Where is our incremental progress? I am not feeling it.
Well, Parkland gave them an opportunity to take a big chomp on the apple. There's nothing like a crisis to exploit. Hopefully they'll choke on it. Figuratively speaking, of course.
