Researchers have estimated that if we still had a federal assault weapons ban, we would see 70% fewer mass shooting deaths.
S-E-V-E-N-T-Y PERCENT.
Reinstating it should be a no-brainer.
@karoli Thanks for this coverage. Naomi Biden is a private citizen who got married at her grandfatherās residence, which happens to be federal property. Her grandparents paid for her wedding, a normal thing for grandparents to do. Taxpayers didnāt pay. The press has no need to cover it just because her grandfather is the president. Heās allowed to attend a family event without us being in his business, and her father is also allowed to attend family events. I read a lot of political coverage every day, and Naomi Biden getting married isnāt political. Itās a feature. Robin Givhan can write about her dress or what the guests wore if she gets that opportunity. (I enjoy reading the Style section of the Post too. But thatās enjoyment and not need-to-know.)
Naomi Biden can also choose to do a feature in Vogue. Private citizens do that too.
Since Iām not on the bird site, I only see tweets embedded in articles like that.. All I can say to Parker and the rest (not Schultz or Froomkin):
Last nightās mass shooting at a Walmart in Chesapeake, VA is awful and senseless.
Americans deserve to live without this constant threat of gun violence. Praying for the victims and their families as we mourn the second mass shooting in just a few days.
earth: Iām dying
humans: Iām sorry you feel that way
The latest write-thru of the NYT dad hero Club Q story is even more of a gut-punch than it was four hours ago.
