97% of gun owners are in favor of universal background checks, a bill passed the House, but McConnell won't even bring it up for a vote in the Senate, he's owned by the NRA as are many Republicans. The thought that the Left wants to take away people's guns is a right wing talking point and has been for a long time, all the Left wants is universal background checks, and common sense gun control, no one needs an AR 15 to protect themselves or their family, the Right uses the same scare tactics every election, no one is taking away people's guns. There are more guns in this country than people, sadly that isn't changing anytime soon
