I have posted this before but .. 26 years ago, a gunman entered Dunblane Primary School in Scotland, killing 16 kids and a teacher. The UK govt responded by enacting tight gun control legislation. In the 9400+ days since, there have been a total of O school shootings in the UK.

A “never event” is something hospitals are held to for “public accountability” It should never happen because if all do out part, it won’t (e.g., an infection you get in the hospital when you came for another reason) Hospitals are penalized if they happen.

Sen. Marsha Blackburn Since you are ready to assist, return the 1.3 million dollars to NRA and choose children’s safety over guns and your desire to be re-elected. Serve the people and not yourself. As a Tennessee citizen and doctor, we do not need assault weapons in this state or country
