The dumbest mass shooting prevention program in history
by digby
I didn’t think they could be any dumber but this really takes the cake:
The Trump administration is preparing a package of legislative measures responding to a spate of recent mass shootings, aides said Monday, even as White House and congressional staffs remain far apart on the best path forward.
The package will include legislation that would expedite the death penalty for people found guilty of mass killings, Vice President Mike Pence’s chief of staff told reporters.
But it’s unlikely to include new provisions expanding background checks on gun sales after President Donald Trump backed off support for such steps following outcry from the National Rifle Association and warnings about the political consequences.
Mass killers are going to be deterred by the death penalty? Are they kidding?
I’m sure this will thrill his cult, however. The more death the better.
