(PBS News Hour 8.5. 2019)
One hour program was devoted to “Gun Violence in America”. Gun control, white supremacy,
white nationalism, political ramifications of gun control, and Trump’s racial rhetoric were
covered in depth.

McConnell is a senator from Kentucky.
When I was leaving Kentucky to Denver, he started his first political carrier.
That was 22 years ago. Now, he has become the senior in the Republican Party.
With a thick reading glass and swollen droopy cheek, he has become an idiotic loyal slave
following his fxxxxing master, Donald Trump.
It's a shame for the commonwealth of Kentucky as well as the entire U.S. and the world.
No matter how much we despise the gun-violence, as long as the guns are available,
it will happen again and again because we have more idiots than the number of guns.

I like his views on climate change, gun control and impeaching Trump.
NRA is the tip of the iceberg if you look at how corporations and politics work hand
in hand. In Korea, they say it is “정경유착”. Politicians are supposed to work for
the people, but they work for the corporation that give them the money.

Couldn’t agree more with Steve.
Gun was made to shoot to kill! Therefore, it is a perfect gift(?) to human being, one and only creature to kill same species for fun, God forbids!
Indeed, we need the license to drive BUT there is NO license to need to kill. So be it! Who else we should blame? God bless America!

P.S. When I came to Richmond, Virginia in 1968 and was assigned to the animal lab to start my American life, I had to encounter newly returned former residents from Vietnam who were also assigned to the lab till they get tamed back to normal human from the animal. Indeed, they were the animals with no doubts. One animal freshly out of Danang approached me advising that there is NO such American life with NO Jews and NO NRA so that "never attempt to cross Jews and NRA" as long as I live here in the U.S. It was 50 years ago. Now?
The people who committed mass shooting are crazy. So, they are mentally ill.
That’s the elementary logic of Trump. He thinks the solution for gun violence is
to take care of the mentally ill. Senate majority leader Mitch McConnell does not
want the bill that has a background check on the floor. Trump and McConnell
are two idiots leading this country. In 2020, they must be voted out.
