Is it too soon to talk about gun control after the mass shooting yesterday or is it just the right amount of time to talk about gun control after the mass shooting 6 days ago?

The issue is money in politics. They’re allowing children to die because of the gun lobby. They’re allowing the planet to die because of Big Oil. They’re allowing people to go without healthcare and die because of the insurance lobby. Inaction is bought.
