In the aftermath of these attacks, gun lobby shills are always quick to use some version of "now is not the time," when asked to take action by the constituents that they represent. Passing common-sense gun safety legislation in times of crisis is not a "political thing." It's a necessary step to prevent this tragic cycle of mass shootings from repeating over and over again. But the far-right zealots that are in the pocket of the gun lobby are not willing to put their re-election campaign checks on the line and take a stand. And we've had enough.
