"In the end it didn’t pass (the law requiring universal background checks on gun buyers) because we're so politicized. There were some on my side who did not want to be seen helping the president do something he wanted to get done, just because the president wanted to do it,”
--Senator Pat Toomey, GOP senator who co-sponsored a legislation, with Sen. Joe Manchin, to require universal background checks on all gun buyers. 90% of Americans support this legislation, but the NRA doesn't and the GOP is controlled by them. Very sad.
