His work has appeared on Newsweek.com, Slate.com, CBSNews.com, MotherJones.com, DailyKos.com and NPR’s web site. Fiore’s political animation has appeared on CNN, Frontline, Bill Moyers Journal, Salon.com and cable and broadcast outlets across the globe.\r\n\r\nBeginning his professional life by drawing traditional political cartoons for newspapers, Fiore’s work appeared in publications ranging from the Washington Post to the Los Angeles Times. In the late 1990s, he began to experiment with animating political cartoons and, after a short stint at the San Jose Mercury News as their staff cartoonist, Fiore devoted all his energies to animation.\r\nGrowing up in California, Fiore also spent a good portion of his life in the backwoods of Idaho. It was this combination that shaped him politically. Mark majored in political science at Colorado College, where, in a perfect send-off for a cartoonist, he received his diploma in 1991 as commencement speaker Dick Cheney smiled approvingly.\r\nMark Fiore was awarded the Pulitzer Prize for political cartooning in 2010, a Robert F. Kennedy Journalism Award in 2004 and has twice received an Online Journalism Award for commentary from the Online News Association (2002, 2008). Fiore has received two awards for his work in new media from the National Cartoonists Society (2001, 2002), and in 2006 received The James Madison Freedom of Information Award from The Society of Professional Journalists.",

A state lawsuit in San Diego after a 2019 shooting was allowed to proceed last year on the same basis.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The survivors of the shooting at a San Diego-area synagogue argued that Smith & Wesson used marketing “that attracted impulsive young men with military complexes who were particularly likely to be attracted to the unique ability of AR-15 style weapons.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Smith & Wesson responded that the federal law shielded them from such lawsuits, but a San Diego County Superior Court judge disagreed, citing the marketing exception.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Michael Schwartz, executive director of San Diego County Gun Owners, said the bill and others brought forward by Democrats this session are a threat to gun ownership rights throughout California.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“If fully realized and implemented, it’s an enormous threat to gun rights,” Schwartz said. “There’s no way to stop anyone from using a product illegally. But you wouldn’t sue Ford for someone drinking and driving.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>When it comes to the JR-15, singled out by Newsom, Schwartz said marketing is still directed to the people who can purchase the guns: the parents.

And the Congress of the United States does nothing.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003ca href=\"https://www.kaine.senate.gov/press-releases/kaine-co-sponsors-bill-to-ban-assault-weapons\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">New federal legislation\u003c/a> championed by Feinstein and co-authored by Democratic Sen. Tim Kaine of Virginia would, among other things, ban the sale and manufacturing of over 200 different types of military-style assault weapons, including those that accept detachable magazines equipped with 10 or more rounds. Anyone who currently owns such weapons could still keep them.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Far from being an outright repeal of potentially deadly firearms or of gun rights, the proposal would exempt over 2,000 other types of guns, including those used for self-defense, hunting, target shooting and other recreation.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>When pressed during an appearance at UCLA Medical Center Tuesday, Feinstein acknowledged that the proposed assault weapon legislation did not have enough Republican support to make it through Congress.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“No, there is not at the present time,” she said.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“We have, I believe, 29 co-sponsors. And I don’t think that one is Republican. The Republican Party should recognize what’s happening across America,” she said.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Feinstein said that she’d press on with the proposed ban and other legislation in the future. She dismissed a suggestion from retired U.S. Supreme Court John Paul Stevens that perhaps it was time for the Second Amendment to the U.S. Constitution to be repealed in favor of gun laws that more appropriately reflect modern times.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“I don’t think it’s possible,” Feinstein said of the repeal idea.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Los Angeles City Attorney Mike Feuer, who joined Feinstein at UCLA, created a \u003ca href=\"http://www.google.com/url?sa=t&rct=j&q=&esrc=s&source=web&cd=3&ved=0ahUKEwibqe2-4o3aAhUM_4MKHTLoAysQFgg6MAI&url=http%3A%2F%2Fwww.vpcgla.org%2Fl-a-gun-violence-prevention-network%2F&usg=AOvVaw05gtPdlJ7ZRJVoo3CIe-zp\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Gun Violence Prevention Unit\u003c/a> aimed at working to keep guns out of the hands of criminals and children.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Feuer also co-founded and now co-chairs Prosecutors Against Gun Violence. The coalition of some 40 prosecutors across the country aims to bring what it calls “prosecutorial and policy solutions and gun sense to the epidemic of gun violence.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>His office has prosecuted gun owners who failed to secure weapons that later fell into the hands of children.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“So I’m a big supporter of taking these laws and making sure that they are realized,” Feuer said. “There may be an additional law that would be helpful to also enact here in Los Angeles. But the key for us now is to use the laws that we have now, and be vigilant about being sure that they are enforced.”\u003c/p>\n\n\u003c/div>\u003c/p>",

The nation has heard you. … The systems in place are not effective to protect our kids and our citizens.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The statement asserted the company’s support for the Second Amendment but continued, “we have to help solve the problem that’s in front of us. Gun violence is an epidemic.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>In addition to changing its own policies, the company issued a plea to elected officials to enact “common-sense gun reform,” specifically calling for the following regulations:\u003c/p>\n\u003cul>\n\u003cli>Ban assault-style firearms\u003c/li>\n\u003cli>Raise the minimum age to purchase firearms to 21\u003c/li>\n\u003cli>Ban high-capacity magazines, as well as bump stocks — gun accessories that allow semi-automatic rifles to operate like fully automatic weapons\u003c/li>\n\u003cli>Require universal background checks that include relevant mental health information and previous interactions with the law\u003c/li>\n\u003cli>Ensure a complete universal database of those banned from buying firearms\u003c/li>\n\u003cli>Close the private sale and gun show loopholes that waive background checks\u003c/li>\n\u003c/ul>\n\u003cp>With their moves, Dick’s and Walmart join a host of major companies that made changes in reaction to the Parkland shooting.

Delta, which is based in Atlanta, had announced two days earlier that “we will be requesting that the NRA remove our information from their website” — a decision Cagle described as an attack on conservatives.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Asked about the potential for pushback among gun rights advocates, Stack acknowledged the move “isn’t going to make everyone happy. But when we look at what those kids and the parents and the heroes in the school, what they did, our view was: If the kids can be brave enough to organize like this, we can be brave enough to get these [firearms] out of here.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“We’re staunch supporters of the Second Amendment,” he added. “I’m a gun owner myself.

Gun violence is an epidemic.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>In addition to changing its own policies, the company issued a plea to elected officials to enact “common-sense gun reform,” specifically calling for the following regulations:\u003c/p>\n\u003cul>\n\u003cli>Ban assault-style firearms\u003c/li>\n\u003cli>Raise the minimum age to purchase firearms to 21\u003c/li>\n\u003cli>Ban high-capacity magazines, as well as bump stocks — gun accessories that allow semi-automatic rifles to operate like fully automatic weapons\u003c/li>\n\u003cli>Require universal background checks that include relevant mental health information and previous interactions with the law\u003c/li>\n\u003cli>Ensure a complete universal database of those banned from buying firearms\u003c/li>\n\u003cli>Close the private sale and gun show loopholes that waive background checks\u003c/li>\n\u003c/ul>\n\u003cp>With their moves, Dick’s and Walmart join a host of major companies that made changes in reaction to the Parkland shooting.
