@das_g Ah. That makes sense. I thought you might be one of the folks I’ve run into here who think it’s cool to Google translate their posts so it looks like they’re multi-lingual. (That drives me nuts.)

‼️ BIG NEWS today as the Biden-Harris Administration announces the creation of an office of Gun Violence Prevention after calls from myself and House Democrats to help end this epidemic.
This move will help save lives in #NEOhio. Gun violence happens daily, the work to end it should be daily too.
