Rep. Jared Moskowitz (D-Fla.) asked Monday that a congressional field hearing focused on red flag laws be held in Parkland, Fla., where such provisions were enacted in 2018 after the deadly shooting at Marjory Stoneman Douglas High School.
The request — made to House Oversight Chairman James Comer (R-Ky.) and House Judiciary Committee Chairman Jim Jordan (R-Ohio) — came days after a gunman fatally shot eight people at an outlet mall in Allen, Texas.
“Guns have become the #1 killer of children. Parents worry as they send their kids to school, to the mall, or the movies. It’s a fear all parents live with. Public places once considered safe are now targets for gun violence,” Moskowitz, a member of the Oversight Committee, wrote in a letter to Comer and Jordan.
“I request that the House Oversight and Accountability Committee and House Judiciary Committee hold a field hearing in Parkland, Florida, to learn about the success of ‘red flag laws,’” he added.
In March 2018, the Florida legislature passed and then-Gov. Rick Scott (R) signed a gun control bill into law that, among other provisions, instituted so-called “red flag laws,” which authorized law enforcement officers to request a “risk protection order.” The order would “prevent persons who are at high risk of harming themselves or others from accessing firearms or ammunition.”
The law also raised the minimum age to buy a firearm from 18 to 21, imposed a three-day waiting period for most long gun purchases, allowed certain trained school employees to have concealed handguns on them while on school campuses, and established new programs focused on mental health for schools.
The GOP-led Florida legislature approved the measure less than two months after the shooting at Marjory Stoneman Douglas High School in which 17 students and staff members were killed. Moskowitz — who is an alum of the school — was serving in the Florida state legislature when the gun control bill passed.
The Republican legislators and governor backed the measure despite strong opposition from the National Rifle Association.

Burgundy-colored T-shirts [the color shirt worn by the shooter] make me uncomfortable and he used to be so understanding he stopped wearing it around me. That person is completely gone and I miss him so fucking much.

Once again, the gunman who murdered 4 innocent people at Saint Francis Hospital in Tulsa, Oklahoma, purchased his AR-15 legally, supplemented by a semi-automatic pistol from a pawnshop bought days before. You only have to look at the gunman’s mugshot and the insane reason he gave for murdering Dr. Phillips to ask yourself why anyone would sell him a weapon. 
The murderer who killed 19 children and 2 teachers in Uvalde, Texas, also bought his AR-15 rifles legally. Many other mass shooters have obtained their weapons legally; the murderer in the Marjory Stoneman Douglas shooting was able to access weapons despite being known to police long before he murdered 17 students. 
So there’s no point complaining about criminals having access to black market weapons, when they do pretty well obtaining rifles legally, no questions asked. Assault rifles need to be banned again (and stay banned), universal background checks should be passed, nobody with a history of assault, domestic violence or mental illness should have access to a firearm (the majority of firearms deaths are still suicides, according to the Gun Violence Archive), and age limits for purchase should be raised. 
There’s no point complaining about family breakdown, social isolation, bullying, mental illness, drugs, video games, and so on until the simplest and most obvious problem is solved: lax gun laws that enable criminals and leave the population in constant fear. 
Other factors are important, especially mental illness and drug use. However, someone with a serious mental illness or a drug problem does not automatically become a threat to innocent lives unless they have access to weapons. So it is obvious that such access should be restricted, and, where necessary, removed. 
Between the Robb Elementary School shooting and the Saint Francis shooting, 156 Americans died over the Memorial Day weekend in various shootings. Every day that we have to read about such senseless deaths is a day of shame for the politicians, lobbyists, and general fanatics who refuse to stop this carnage. 
Other countries have gun owners, but when such a tragedy occurs, the government acts quickly and the chances of dying in such a massacre likewise decreases. Yet we also have problems with mental health, drug use, and so on. 
The United States, and other countries like Russia, stands out for its jaw-dropping inability to control this problem, despite the number of body bags piling up around the country, and despite majority support among Americans for stricter gun control laws. 
At this point, I think we need to increase international outcry against the American government on grounds of international human rights law. Surely a patent refusal to clamp down on gun crime violates the right to life and safety? Time for the United Nations to push this issue.

6 years ago, on this day, THAT ASH WEDNESDAY, a shooter massacred 14 students and 3 faculty members of Marjory Stoneman Douglas High School in Parkland, FL. May St. Valentine pray for the heavenly repose of those souls.

It's not just the guns. It's the Republicans.
On Monday, my community saw the results of Republicans’ dystopian view of the world. Around 1pm, the University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill issued an alert, telling all students to shelter in place. An armed and dangerous man was on campus. Within minutes, the town was shutdown. Law enforcement from across the region flooded onto campus. News video showed officers in bulletproof vests moving…
