General Discussion

If you have evidence that DUers are working hard at getting strict gun control laws enacted, I'd like to see it

During the election, many DUers made posts where they talked about donating, canvassing, texting, calling, volunteering to work at a local campaign office, attending rallies, sending out postcards, volunteering as a poll worker or poll watcher , registering new voters, and such.

But with gun control, it's silence.

People are going to take action on issues and situations that are very important to them. The recent election is a good example. They aren't going to do much or anything at all with issues that arent important.

The civil rights movement and the anti Vietnam War movement in the '60's were very public. They didn't work in silence. Leaders like MLK made speeches, led protests, was arrested and ultimately lost his life. He didn't limit himself to writing letters to the editor .
