Oh good. I'm glad that once more we're ignoring the fact that we haven't passed any sort of budget in three years, and a full budget in 15 years. Who cares about funding our government or the people it employs? We should definitely continue to ignore that issue. It's probably not going to get any worse, right?

EDIT: Oh, and we should definitely put wording in new law about violent videogames, while ignoring the fact that the entirety of our media revels in violence like a puppy rolling around in poop.

You must not read many posts here if you think that kind of argument is going to fly in this comm.

What on earth does this story have to do with the budget? I mean, yeah, that's a super fucked up problem that we need to talk about, but this isn't really the platform for that discussion. This is a platform for talking about the article on gun control.

Congress can't task swap, apparently.

Good. This needs to be done. The right to own weapons doesn't mean the right to do so without regulation.

Excellent. And I hope he *does* take executive action, and i hope the GOP is hung out to dry if they attempt to block him on this stuff. Enough is enough.
