JK! They’re too busy
spending their money, like the $54,000,000 politicians received from the nra during the 2016 election Instead of fixing gun problems, like the 38,000 americans that died from gun-related deaths in 2016. Based on a CNN Poll conducted by SSRS February 20-23, 2018
Sen. marc0 rubio received
$90,205 in campaign donations from gun rights groups during the 2015-2016 campaign cycle and an A+ grade from the NRA.
@marcorubio
The debate after #Parkland reminds us We The People don’t really like each other very much. We smear those who refuse to agree with us. We claim a Judea-Christian heritage but celebrate arrogance & boasting. & worst of all we have infected the next generation with the same disease. We should change the names of AR-15s to “Marco Rubio” because they are so easy to buy.

It literally makes me sick to my stomach every time I read it BUT that’s the whole point. I need you to be uncomfortable, its what creates change. #notonemore #enoughisenough
