Chris Murphy said "Since Uvalde, we have had somewhere around 20 mass shootings, including now, it appears, at a hospital. We have had more mass shootings this year than days in the year. They are happening at a pace that we have never, ever seen before in this nation`s history. And it is not coincidental to a dramatic increase over the course of the last few years in the pace of gun sales, which ultimately means a lot of guns end up in the hands of people who shouldn`t have them, including people who have criminal records, including people who have serious red flags." @ PoliticalQuotes.com
