The partisan divide over guns couldn't be more stark even after the nation's most recent mass shootings — including the killings of 19 children at a Texas elementary school. Rather than uniting the country behind a shared vision for how to keep the public safe, the massacres have deepened the chasm between congressional lawmakers when it comes to guns, their function and their place in American culture. Increasingly, Democrats view the Second Amendment as a malleable doctrine, subject to limits for the sake of protecting the public from violent outbursts they consider preventable. Their solution to mass shootings like Uvalde hinges on a simple premise: fewer guns in fewer hands. |
