I'm getting emails from politicians asking me to check boxes on my topics of most concern. Many of them don't have a box to check that says Guns. If they have a box marked "other", I put GUNS there!

Since this is a thread on guns, I'll reply here. It's not the guns that are the problem, it's the ammunition! My ex had several guns and enjoyed going to a local firing range. But when bullets became too expensive and hard to find in stores, he stopped that hobby. He did fill his own bullet shells, but even that ended after a while. So, let the Republicans buy the guns, as long as the Democrats buy the ammunition and gunpowder. If bullets were $100.00 each I doubt the crazy gun owners world be so free with what and who they shoot. I know the black market would supply both, people that want it can get it, yada, yada, but it was just an idea that seemed to even things out a bit. Supply and demand. I'd buy a box of ammo to hoard before I'd ever buy a gun.

Congress members' websites have drop-down menus to select an issue when writing to them. I'm familiar with and approve those of my C-people (Ayanna, Markey, Warren). But a couple of months ago I compared theirs to several of the worst GQPs in Congress. Where MA officials have "Reproductive Rights" or "Gun Control," Repugs have "Gun Rights," "Adoption and Abortion" and "Traditional Values." It is quite revealing.
