— RainnWilson (@rainnwilson) April 18, 2013
sad day that we didn't pass background checks in U.S. Every responsible gun owner i know (and i know a lot) supported it.

— Rob Thomas (@ThisIsRobThomas) April 17, 2013
If 90% of senators wanted a double non fat vanilla cappuccino & we decided they should have a black coffee instead, they would be pissed.
