The Christmas Eve shooting in Webster
Mr Smith: responding (or non-responding) to the tragedy in Webster, Assemblyman Mark Johns, when asked about the issue of gun control by Beth Adams on Christmas day, said we should wait for the event to play itself out. A non-answer from a politician, again. These dead firefighters were bravely doing their jobs. The response from Mr Johns is a cowardly mockery of their sacrifice (on Christmas). We should be appalled. We need to throw men (I am reluctant to use this word: I hear no evidence of humanity) like this out of office. Is a recall election possible? Enough is enough.
