Comedian Amy Schumer and her cousin, Sen. Chuck Schumer, are teaming up to advocate new gun laws.

They even created their own hashtag: #AimingForChange. Some are not sure about that wording.

@amyschumer @SenSchumer seems like an unfortunate hashtag for this.

#AimingForChange is a reference to shooting guns, and therefore outrageously dangerous according to your own rules. https://t.co/QpN0GTYfNi

Regardless, it’s another issue that the Left is going to commit to the almighty power of the hashtag.

Cute hashtags and restrictions to citizens rights will not end gun violence! You can't possibly be this stupid! https://t.co/ZPGcc20Ddn
