Rubio has an A+ rating, & has taken $3.3 million from the NRA. He is just one of many R’s (Cruz) who are handmaidens to the gun lobby. The safety of the public is not as important as their #NRABloodMoney.

Let’s dispel gun myths the NRA constantly parrots. tampabay.com/florida-politi…
“Guns don’t kill people, people kill people.”
This is probably the most common argument heard from gun advocates. It’s true that guns can’t kill by themselves & DO indeed need someone to pull the trigger... Guns don’t kill people, but allow someone who WOULD kill much easier, faster, more lethal means for killing. #GunReform

The result of a bullet ricocheting inside the skull and destroying the brain on CT scan. The worst trauma I have seen. GUNS ARE A PUBLIC HEALTH ISSUE – Gen Geller MD, NY #docs4gunsense @drgenngeller
The damage a bullet does to a 1 year old brain as it ricochets back and for. The guilt the family feels. The sadness we all feel.

CPAC is told that Vice-President Mike Pence is here. And then that today’s “closer” is Ben Shapiro.

Applause. Then: “Our first panel is going to be on fake news.”
Over a Michael Bay-ish score, the CPAC day starts with a video of TV people complaining about "fake news," TV people correcting errors, or Trump calling people "fake news."

The video includes a TV clip about how Trump gets an extra scoop of ice cream, which is real news.
Larry O'Connor, moderator of the panel, "An Affair to Remember: How the Far Left and the Mainstream Media Got in Bed Together," begins by calling CNN's Florida town hall “basically a Trotskyite show trial against the Second Amendment.”
