Letter: How long will it take?

In 2012, 20 boys and girls at Sandy Hook Elementary were gunned down. What action to curb gun access has been taken in the four years that followed?
None! The reach of the National Rifle Association is vast. Even after the killing of 49 attendees at an Orlando night club we find the Democrats unable to pass their bill to toughen gun laws.
Democratic Sen. Chris Murphy had vowed to speak as long as he was physically able until the Senate would take action on gun legislation. Sen. Diane Feinstein would ban sales to suspected terrorists, including those on watch lists.
Is that so unreasonable?l Republican leader Mitch McConnell seems none too happy about this proposal.
There must be due process. What about due process for those 49 Orlando young people?
