Time to create MAG (Mothers Against Guns) patterned after MADD (Mothers Against Drunk Driving)? Or perhaps EAG (Everybody Against Guns)? NRA...No Rational Argument? Assault weapons should not be in civilian hands. Even the military locks up guns on bases!

I envisioned the Internet as the place where people can collaborate and leverage other people's ideas. Collaboration and information sharing empowers people, and us, as a society. Without data sharing, we can't have collaboration.

We are all immigrants or descended from them here in the US and that even includes Native Americans who evidently came here from Asia - how can Mr. Trump not understand that? Have you never heard of "hybrid vigor"? That is what has made the American story so compelling.
