Letter: Democrats not interested in ‘fix’

In 2001, aircraft destroyed buildings in New York, almost 3,000 killed, others still suffering today. Aircraft were not banned, Muslim immigrants were not banned.

Auto deaths higher than gun deaths. No calls to ban autos. More than 20,000 municipal, county, state and federal gun laws on the books, plus “Thou shalt not murder”commandment. Apparently, not effective.

These regulations must not be “common sense.” Clinton had eight years to “fix” this. Obama had eight years to “fix” this. Nothing happened. I am concluding that the Democratic Party and their followers don’t want a solution, they would prefer to let this continue simply to advance their agenda, relying on agitating people’s emotions, no matter who suffers or what the cost.
