That's what the Republicans always say, every single time - now is not the time for debate. It's never the time for debate. Now is certainly the time for debate and it's been the time for debate for decades. Nothing can change until the NRA is precluded from donating to politicians, it's that simple. They need the money, they crave the money, and then, just as the NRA wants, they are beholden for the money. It's always the money. As people have finally said, the US is the ONLY country where this happens. They blame it on mental illness. Well, no, that has to stop because they make it possible for people with mental issues to easily get guns. This century's Republicans, save for a handful of decent people who buck the jerks, will not stop until they've completely broken everything. Shame on them forever.
