Guns In America
On that Atlanta, Georgia slaughter of more innocent American citizens earlier today: Tom Winter @Tom_Winter
"NEW: Two senior law enforcement officials briefed on the matter tell NBC News that the gun -- a 9mm handgun -- used by Robert Aaron Long in yesterday’s shooting spree in Georgia was purchased legally and it was purchased yesterday prior to the shooting."
Reported w/ Mike Kosnar

"Waiting period laws that delay the purchase of firearms by a few days reduce gun homicides by roughly 17%.
10 states + DC do have waiting periods for at least some types of firearm purchases.
Georgia is not one of them."
Again and as ever, thanks, NRA. Thanks, Republicans.
