Mental health IS a real challenge. I talk about it often. I talked about it during the House Sit-In to prevent gun violence that John Lewis led six years ago. Over half of US gun deaths are suicides; over half of suicides involve guns. Our gun problem fuels our suicide problem. — PolitiTweet.org

They don't really care about mental health, they just use it as a dodge to take the focus off guns. Look at it this way: every country in the world has people suffering from mental illness. We don't have 100 times more mental illness in America. What we have is lots of guns. — PolitiTweet.org

But the simple truth here that none of these opponents of gun safety reforms can get away from is that we don't have a monopoly on mental illness, we just have vastly more mass shootings and especially school shootings than other countries. And we know why. It's the guns. — PolitiTweet.org
