Claire McCaskill, a Democrat, was the first woman elected to the U.S. Senate from Missouri. She is currently an MSNBC and NBC News political analyst.
First of all, my heart is breaking. Kansas City is a wonderful community, and on Wednesday it was filled with thousands upon thousands of excited Missourians. These fans came together to forget about their differences and join in a celebration filled with pride and joy. But now, that moment will always be defined by the individual or individuals who opened fire after a rally celebrating the Chiefs' Super Bowl victory, a hideous act of violence.
A moment of collective joy. That is a terrible crime. Missouri has some of the most open, liberal gun laws in the country. Anyone can carry a long gun, anywhere. Police departments in urban areas are challenged by the laws, because they limit what law enforcement officers can do if they see citizens carrying weapons of war openly on the streets of cities like St. Louis and Kansas City.
