It’s well established that the major gun control organizations are little more than astroturf paid for and run by professional activists and politicians. Lately they appear to be expanding their mission beyond gun control into such areas as Fuck Tha Police:
George Floyd.
Breonna Taylor.
Tamir Rice.
Elijah McClain.We must all honor their lives by fighting against the injustices that took them. The House just took a major step forward by passing the Justice in Policing Act. The Senate should follow suit.

ICYMI: Last night, the House passed the George Floyd #JusticeinPolicing Act. This is a significant step towards preventing unjust and potentially lethal practices within policing.
The Senate must pass this bill. #PoliceViolenceIsGunViolencehttps://t.co/lxhJPg8aZJ

D.C.’s lack of voting representation is a crystallization of how far our nation has yet to go to truly deliver on the promises of an inclusive democracy.
This bill should pass in the Senate with a 51-vote simple majority. #51for51 #DCStatehood #WeCantWait @51for51 https://t.co/LQqv5ZTRl6

I can understand why they’d want the later, it would give them a few more reliably antigun representatives. But jumping onto the radical bash the police bandwagon? Maybe they think they can raise money off the issue?
