Or does it? Check out this tweet from CNN Wednesday morning and see if you can tell just whose gun control plan they’re talking about:

1. Change the standards of gun ownership 2. Halve the rate of gun deaths in 10 years 3. Accountability for the gun lobby and industry 4. Name a director of gun violence prevention 5. Generate community-based solutions 6. Empower the next generationhttps://t.co/5vOWmUS78K — CNN (@CNN) August 21, 2019

Oh, that’s not CNN’s plan, it’s March for Our Lives’ plan. We were a little confused there since CNN just tweeted the whole thing out without any context whatsoever. Then again, this is CNN, the cable network that gave the March for Our Lives kids a national platform during their Parkland show trial.

And now that we’ve read the list, we’re even less convinced. “Change the standards of gun ownership?” What standards? You mean background checks, red-flag laws, or something else? And “name a director of gun violence prevention?” How about no?

I notice that there is no “Accountability” for the actual person who commits the crime. Keeping people locked up instead of letting them out for violent crimes also would help. List is based on nonsense — Paul DeFlorio (@Pill_Osiris) August 21, 2019

Not sure how these few tenets of a "plan" will do more than the 22k+ gun laws already in place. — Wendi Hoskinson (@wendi_hoskinson) August 21, 2019

A director of gun violence prevention? I've been looking for a useless job that pays well. Where do I send my resume? — Mr. Scott (@LeroyFunkafied) August 21, 2019

What do you mean "change the standard of gun ownership? — Packfan_24 (@packfan24) August 21, 2019

1. Change the standards of gun ownership

2. Become unprotected

3. Face tyranny of the government — Azamat Khalukhaev (@khalukhaev) August 21, 2019

7. Demonstrate how any of this will work in urban/gang areas where the overwhelming majority of gun violence occurs — Impudent Warwick (@ImpudentWarwick) August 21, 2019

Not one of those is a method… they’re just desired results That isn’t how solutions work — The Nick (@TheBookOfNick) August 21, 2019

1. Too vague. No deal. 2. Gun deaths have already been halved in the last 30 years. It's not a public health crisis 3. The gun lobby is not strong. 4. No. End the bureaucracy. It's not helping. 5. This is vague, but actually a good idea 6. Those words are meaningless — Not a Doctor (@TheRandalHandle) August 21, 2019
