The Nebraska Examiner reports<\/a>:<\/p>\n

“U.S. House Democrats<\/a> held a roundtable forum Monday on changing U.S. gun laws following a recent mass shooting in Maine, where 18 people were killed<\/a>. The top Democrat on the committee, Rep. Jamie Raskin<\/a> of Maryland, invited witnesses to discuss gun violence solutions, and said that the gun industry lobby, the National Rifle Association<\/a> and Republicans push back against gun reform. \u201cWe\u2019re going to examine the nationwide gun emergency that\u2019s taking place, the endless rounds of gun violence and massacres that are plaguing our society,\u201d Raskin said. Some of those witnesses included gun safety advocates, educators, survivors of gun violence and people who seek to intervene in community violence … Democrats on the committee who participated in the forum included … Dan Goldman<\/a> of New York …”<\/em><\/p><\/blockquote>\n

This is nothing more than a really lame political stunt, so weak that I haven’t seen any coverage by big New York media outlets.\u00a0 Goldman didn’t even bother to send out a self-aggrandizing presser on it so he knows it was a farce.<\/p>\n
