NFL fans and citizens responded to Nancy Pelosi’s call for action following the tragic shooting at the Kansas City Chiefs Super Bowl parade on Wednesday. Two people died and more than 20 were injured in a mass shooting during the Chiefs celebration in Kansas City.
Nancy Pelosi: What more will it take?
Per Daniel Arwas with GH, Pelosi wrote the incident should cause the US to work to end gun violence:
“One politician who many regard as “controversial” in former Speaker of the House, Nancy Pelosi, has weighed in on Twitter (X) with her thoughts on the day’s incredibly saddening incident.
Once again, our nation learns the heartbreaking news of gun violence in America. The horrific mass shooting at the Kansas City victory celebration, which killed one and wounded at least twenty, is another outrageous example of a community shattered by gun violence.
What more will it take for us to end gun violence so that our children can live free?
Pelosi called for reinstating the Assault Weapons Ban
Forever inspired by their courage, Democrats will never stop fighting to end America’s gun violence epidemic. Republicans must join us in reinstating the Assault Weapons Ban and enacting universal background checks to save lives and protect our children.

Start by locking up the criminals and leaving them in jail for a very long time. Then see what happens.

What part of "shall not be infringed" do you not understand?

All I know is that I’m far more scared of the government than I am of an occurrence which on the grand scheme of things, doesn’t happen too often.
