In less than 24 hours, we have had a mass shooting at high school football game in Mobile, Alabama, (Thankfully, no deaths) and a shooting spree in Midland-Odessa, Texas which saw 7 dead.
Less than a day after the Midland-Odessa shootings, Texas loosened its gun laws:
Texas Gov. Greg Abbott defended new gun laws that ease restrictions on gun owners in that state Sunday, hours after the laws went into effect and hours after a gunman shot at least 21 people, killing seven, in and around Odessa, Texas.
The new laws loosen restrictions on gun ownership and use in schools, foster homes, apartment buildings, and houses of worship. Proponents of the laws argue that they will offer people the opportunity to defend themselves from threats, while critics say expanding gun access makes people less safe.
Can we give Texas back to Mexico? Please?
