Our legislators must take responsible action against the proliferation of guns, specifically AR-15 style assault weapons. It is time for them to put an end to, and to reject, financial support from the NRA.

There have been too many children and adults killed by guns.

I don't want my future children to have to fear for their lives one day in the place they should be going to learn. The main way to fix this is to stop the influence of the gun lobby on our politicians, so they can represent OUR issues! I hope Rep. Shuster makes the right decision!

In January 1989, a man named Patrick Purdy, who was in the lingo of social work, a throwaway kid, opened fire on the school yard at Cleveland Elementary School in Stockton, California. When I heard this horrific news, I remember thinking, the shooter probably attended that school as a child. I was horrified to learn I was correct. We have to stop this epidemic of school-based violence. We can start with better mental health services for children and adolescents. We can continue by limiting access to guns and munitions. And we can make safe schools a priority and appropriate mental health services a right to necessary medical care regardless of social status or income.

Rep. Doug Collins has accepted $11,140 from the NRA . We demand that he return this money or donate the money to victims of gun violence. Please sign the petition and share if you agree that the NRA has NO PLACE in our politics. It's time for sensible gun control and we start with getting the #NRABloodMoney out!!!

I am tired of reading about school children being shot while at school

The recent shooting in nearby Broward County, Florida is just another example of why assault weapons do not belong in public hands. Rapid-fire weapons do not belong in civilian hands. The founders did not have them, and the right to bear arms is not threatened by banning assault and rapid-fire weapons. We should not allow these weapons to be accessible to the public and the time has come to put an end to this ludicrous "freedom" that reduces the freedoms of the innocent in this country. Stand up for a safer USA—one without easy access to weapons of mass casualty.

Randy Hultgren took money from the NRA and is complicit with this latest tragedy in Florida.

The recent shooting in Florida has opened everyone's eyes to the violence the NRA perpetuates.

In Florida, another school became a killing field. Lamar Smith has accepted thousands of dollars from the NRA. He needs to repudiate their putting profits above the well-being of our nations children and citizens. Tell Lamar Smith to give back the money he received from the NRA.

Less than two months into 2018 there have been at least 18 school shootings. How can we put a stop to this violence when our representatives take money from the gun lobby and refuse to support gun regulation? We cannot allow one more child to die at the hands of the NRA, and we cannot allow our Congress members to be paid for their silence.

We have to stop our elected officials from taking money from the NRA! We need them to work for us "The People", not for the powerful gun lobbyists.
