@rashiddar . @rashiddar I think your tweet has probably doubled the chances of gun control legislation passing in America. If every Muslim-American RTs this, we will defeat the NRA :)

Here's video of Trone’s remarks at a Town Hall Meeting this week when he was questioned on the issue. YOU CAN MAKE A DIFFERENCE: (2/2) A US-funded Israeli bomb is dropping on Gaza every 4 minutes, killing a child every 10 minutes. The least we can do is take 4 minutes each day
