Enough is Enough!

We offer condolences to the families, friends and acquaintances of victims from the shooting rampage in Aurora, Colorado - a single  individual, a legally purchased  AR-15 military style semi-automatic rifle, a legally purchased shotgun and two legally purchased pistols - enough is enough!


WE must put pressure on the National Rifle Association (NRA) through lawmakers at the Congressional and state levels with the message to  legislate stricter gun control laws.

A, recent, rash of weakened gun laws has swept our nation between 2010 and 2012 giving wider latitude for  gun purchase, gun registration and gun carry regulations. The National Rifle Association (NRA) wrote, sponsored and lobbied  for the majority of those laws  and Republican Congressional representatives, governors and state majority  legislators took the bait under radical right wing  Second Amendment pressure  -  documentation in Trayvon Martin: The Tip of the Iceberg at www.spindetective.com

WE must stop the madness through direct communication with elected officials, through social networks and at the polls. The victims of Aurora as well as thousands of other deregulated gun law victims across the nation deserve nothing less!
