Divest our state's pension funds from companies that profit from the sale or manufacturing of guns and ammunition.
Why is this important?
Back in 1985, a good friend was killed in a convenience store robbery 3 months after he graduated from the University of Iowa. Then 23-year-old Miya Rodolfo-Sioson was shot on Nov. 1, 1991, along with other faculty members at the University of Iowa, in a mass shooting.
I do not object to hunters having guns, yet I think the types and numbers of weapons available to people is ridiculous. The right to bear arms does not include automatic/semiautomatic weapons, nor does it include nuclear arms, chemical arms, etc.
Since the NRA has too much influence and ability to manipulate the corrupt system of government we live under, it is responsible to take action where one can.
