In a sadly predictable but still soul-crushing tragedy, six people were killed and dozens more were injured when a young white male opened fire on a Fourth of July parade with a gun.
We now have confirmation from police that said weapons was an AR-15, the same weapon that has been used time and time again to maim and kill innocent Americans en masse. AR-15s were used in the mass murders at Sandy Hook, Parkland, Aurora, Sutherland Springs, Las Vegas, San Bernardino, the Poway synagogue, the Tree of Life Synagogue, the Buffalo supermarket, Uvalde…the list goes on and on, and will continue to get longer unless we do something about it.
Demand Congress immediately take action to ban AR-15s and other assault rifles!
Once the assault rifle ban expired in 2004, the number of deaths in mass shootings skyrocketed. The AR-15 and weapons like it are specifically designed to kill on a battlefield and there is no reason they should ever be in civilian hands.
It's beyond time to put a stop to the endless butchery. The cause of this problem is clear — it's the guns!
Demand Congress ban AR-15s and other assault rifles!
