My daughters rights ended because of bullshit messaging like this. Gun owners can and should support gun safety.

I witnessed an active shooter situation today and I'm not ok. I'm safe, but I'm not ok.

Three men were killed and five other people were injured when gunmen opened fire at a house party in Richmond, California on Sunday night. The shooting is the deadliest in the Bay-area since a gunman killed nine co-workers at a VTA railyard on May 26. https://t.co/64VEJ8kgmG

5 years ago today, the late Rep. John Lewis led a sit-in on the House floor—days after the Pulse shooting.

For over 24 hours, Democrats held the floor, demanding a vote on universal background checks.

Today, we're still fighting to make that legislation law.

The trend in gun sales since 2000 concerns @CSGV's @lisabgeller, who adds she is "very worried about the number of guns that were acquired last year...The more guns that we add into this country, the more people are going to be at risk of gun violence."

JUST IN: The US 9th Circuit Court of Appeals has blocked a federal judge's controversial ruling that overturned California's longtime ban on assault weapons, in which he likened the AR-15 to a Swiss Army knife.

Domestic abuse and gun violence go hand in hand. https://t.co/VGqf3DKZkb

In what world could this possibly make sense?

13 people shot in a single incident last weekend in Austin, and this is @GregAbbott_TX’s response.

After an Oklahoma grandfather and grandson argued, the 13-year-old went into his room to play video games. The grandfather followed him, pulled out a gun, and shot him from just a few feet away, injuring the boy's arteries, liver, pancreas and diaphragm. https://t.co/pEFjfR8raP

An AR-15 will do significantly more damage to your tissues, bones and organs.

Bones will shatter.
Organs will be destroyed.

NEW: @Everytown and @MomsDemand released a new analysis showing road rage shootings increased significantly during the pandemic. If trends continue, 2021 will be the deadliest year for road rage shootings on record, with 500 people wounded or killed. https://t.co/eqh7IuID6G

As we celebrate Pride this weekend in DC, my thoughts are also with all out there who are dealing with the memory of the Pulse shooting five years ago today. 💜 Love to you all.

Alabama authorities took his gun away after a violent domestic incident. 9 months later they gave it back, and he used it to shoot and kill his wife. https://t.co/qx7M9hO7Ve

NEW: The NRA just voluntarily dismissed its claims in federal court against Attorney General Tish James.

The NRA is running away from its federal case against the AG, and their “sue everyone” playbook is failing.

[Stop Handgun Violence @stophandguns]
