Not Unexpectedly, GOP Begins to Cave on Gun Control

It never fails!  Unlike their Democratic counterparts, when the pressure gets tough, you can count on the GOP to begin to cave.  Democrats just double down.  Republicans cave and run like scared rats.    It started yesterday with Governor DeWine in Ohio, who announced a package that included a so-called "Red Flag" law and so-called "universal" background check.  Then you had various members of Congress, including South Dakota Senator John Thune coming out for a red flag law and possibly other gun control, Dayton U.S. Representative Mike Turner who not only came out for a red flag law but also a ban on modern sporting rifles.  Then of course you have PA. Senator Pat Toomey trotting out his "universal" background check bill again. 

If the Republicans think they can hold the Senate and President Trump thinks he will be re-elected by caving on gun control, they should think again.

Virginian's should contact their member of Congress and both Senator's Kaine and Warner.  Yes, I know Kaine and Warner aren't going to listen but they do keep count of how many calls on an issue they receive and they need to hear from us.
