Isn't one of the main excuses the GOP has for not banning guns that the problem is the person, not the gun?

So, why cancel funds that are dedicated to helping the person?

Starving black kids to death might be the only thing that gets repugs as stoked as a classroom full of 1st graders who've been shot to pieces.

So if there's an uptick in gun violence after these cuts, will it mean the program was actually working?

In Okiehomie this is considered a public service. Governor Brownshoes Stitt, enemy of his Cherokee tribe, has stated publicly that more guns makes the Sooner or Later State a more polite place. In other words, watch your tone or someone will pop a cap in you...

@#7 ... Um, because obviously the program has not worked. ...

Has the program not been working?

Or has the program not been working 100%?

Maybe the NRA and the GOP have been trying to prevent it from working as well as it might have worked with their policies?
