Huge news out of Harrisburg -- the PA House just passed a law to keep guns away from domestic abusers. Kudos to all of the
@MomsDemand
volunteers who kept going and kept fighting.
After almost four years of tireless work and an unwavering focus on protecting domestic violence survivors, our Pennsylvania volunteers just proudly watched HB 2060 pass the House of Reps. Now, on to the Senate and the governor!

Cows kill 20-22 people in the United States in a given year.
At that rate, it would take roughly two millennia of unabated cow trampling to equal the number of Americans killed by gun violence in a single year.
These are not serious people.
Minnesota State Sen. Warren Limmer (R-Maple Grove) says safe gun storage laws will keep farmers from protecting their families against cows.
"You even walk too close to a cow, and it'll take you down and trample you into dust."

If you're offering guns for sale online or at a gun show then you're presumed to be trying to make a profit — and you need to run background checks on your customers
This rule will save lives.
