Senate Republicans voted against barring suspected terrorists, felons and the mentally ill from getting guns on Thursday afternoon, parroting National Rifle Association arguments that doing so would strip some innocent people of their constitutional rights to gun access just a day after yet another massacre on U.S. soil.
I don't know about you, but I'm sick to death of the random, vicious killings increasing. SOMETHING has to be done, and we cannot rely on people that were elected by popular votes. This DOES suck, y'all
While the amounts aren't all that much, these members from Louisiana Senate and Congress received campaign money from the NRA:
David "diaper Dave" Vitter: $30,300
Bill Cassidy $14,500
Steve Scalilse $13,450
Charles Boustany $10,000
John Fleming $7,000
Here is a list of all the "Nay" votes from today. Any of yours there? Vitter & Cassidy are. Louisianians that are concerned with their votes, just click their name above and it will bring you to their webpage, where you can leave a message.
