I’m sure we’ve all heard about the Charlie (EBDO) Hebdo tragedy in France by now. Our thoughts and prayers go out to the families of the victims.

Tragedies should never be used as political tools. It’s disrespectful to those who died, as well as their loved ones…… So today, my goal is to make political hay out of this horrific event. My hope is that a positive conversation can come out of this, or anything positive, for that matter.

France has very strict gun laws – draconian compared to that of the U.S. While we can’t be sure about causality, this has been accompanied by 2 deaths for every 100,000 people.
