  • Why does Governor Ivey always talk about guns in her election commercials? It’s sad when we have numerous shootings daily!!! Alabama is ranked LAST in education, she is so proud of the 2nd amendment but what about our kids who are shooting each other!!! Why aren’t they top priority when they are our future, it’s disgraceful to all families with children!!! The right to bear arms, no registration needed that’s what her #1 priority I get out of her campaigns.
