Protect our children against the greed of gun manufacturers. Assault weapons are used for only one reason - to kill humans. Children are their victims.
Why is this important?
The banning of assault weapons and more regulation of the gun industry. I am affected every morning when I read the paper and another innocent child has died as a result of gun fire. I am affected every time I read that an assault weapon is being sold. I am affected when the NRA (the gun manufacturers' representative) passes the buck and says how tragic it is, but it is not responsible. It reminds me of the old cigarette CEOs.
