Dear friends,
Let's not mince words. The only thing greater than our grief should be our anger. Precisely how much will it take before the president and Congress act? As I argue in an op-ed I wrote for the NY Daily News, you must express your outrage in any way you can. It matters. In every single mass shooting we are seeing the same assault weapons and large capacity ammunition magazines.
The president and Congress must act. Not next month; tomorrow.
Best,
Richard Aborn
