    Liberals will not tolerate murder by firearms! Even if the the murderer
    is murdering itself. We need to unionize the firearms industry so that
    big business can move that industry overseas to cheaper countries and
    the freshly unemployed American citizens will no longer have the
    financial ability to purchase guns. Kind of like what is now happening
    to Starbucks. five Dollar coffee will soon be Ten or more dollars and
    Bernie Sanders can sip tea. Can you imagine a barista making more money
    then a construction worker who works year around in all weather? How
    many years and how many cups of coffee did it take to make Shultz a Billionaire? He started out with nothing and built a business to make
    the kind of money that these Union freeloaders want for nothing.
