Just hours removed from the deadliest mass shooting in U.S. history, and many politicians have already begun rallying for who’s to blame. Unsurprisingly, certain high-ranking Democrats wasted little time in pointing the finger, but what Sen. Edward Markey (D-Mass.) declared publicly on Twitter is beyond ridiculous.
The Senator tried to mask his opinion as a call to arms for Congress, but it was impossible for most Americans to ignore his accusations towards the ENTIRE Republican party.
“The epidemic of #gunviolence in our country is not preordained. It is preventable. It is time #GOP stops blocking #guncontrol legislation,” Markey tweeted.
Blaming the GOP makes absolutely no sense. Was it the GOP who opened fire on innocent civilians in an act of premeditated horror? In reality, any push for gun control laws has to be a bi-partisan effort. We learned this in 2013 when a Dem-controlled Senate rejected an improved background check proposal from the GOP.
Apparently, Sen. Markey has a very short memory, but it didn’t stop him from letting loose on Twitter with an unbelievable course of action. Markey outlined his plan to start taking guns from a huge majority of Americans, regardless of who’s actually purchasing them. In other words, Markey is fine with letting one bad apple spoil our Constitution.
The man responsible for this heinous act is dead, and no amount of the blame game will change what he did. Instead of using this tragedy as a way to forward political gains, our leaders should be doing everything in their power to unite this country and its citizens.
How do you feel about Markey’s ideas? Do you think they’re in the best interest of this country? Let us know and SHARE this so the world knows who to support!

He is one crazy man. Never take away gun rights from the people.Monitor mentally unstable people better. Get rid of the Democratic Party.
Criminals will always find a way to get guns. Taking guns away from law abiding citizens makes them easy pray. Guns don’t kill – owople kill. Instead why aren’t you looking for who funded this killer. How was he able to obtain all the weapons, amunition. High priced hotel room etc? He had to be funded by someone else!
Enforce the laws alrwady in place
You want gun control? But see how you think about that on your house was broken into and your wife or daughters are being raped. With comments that you and other Democrat leaders are saying, there needs to be a dick control so that y’all don’t propagate

A gun can only shoot what a person points at and pulls the trigger, as long as we have
open border and keep letting people in you can not and will not be able to stop any of these crazies.
we could have had a 200 foot wall around the border. The people responsible for all these mass shootings are either whit men, or born here.
The thing these libtards don’t get is that they can’t take away our guns. Even if they vote to. We can hold them off.
We need to protect our families. Living in an area thatis predominantly Mexican. What happens if my daughter brings one of them home? we should just send all of the mexicans home and the terrorists right over the border with them. Keep this country safe
