JD Vance has no clue how to stop gun violence

There’s a simple solution John, when I watched the Vice Presidential debate this week I was floored by JD Vance’s comments on gun violence. He refuses to discuss real and pragmatic solutions to gun violence - instead suggesting we design our schools like forts.   Here’s an idea: why don…
