Who doesn't know that mental illness, drug use, lack of decent parenting leads to apathy in our youth? Sure, take away assault weapons and everything will be dandy.
Back to band-aids on the real problems.

I'm sorry you are so upset, but my question is: if you are the Congressman from your district, do you vote for something, (call it a band-aid if you wish), that is supported by between 55-85% of your constituents?
