Gun rights groups are set to defy the Justice Department's rollout of model legislation that gives states a framework to codify gun storage requirements.
-- probably could not have inflicted the amount of damage and killed as many people as quickly as he did. and, so, the issue, the very real issue is we have to take some common tesense approach to gun control legislation nlt i agree, we have to help people with mental health. we have to make our nation healthier. we're not doing enough. but we also have to do something about what's actually killing the people. that is these guns. the high powered guns. there is a reason we don't allow people to have grenades. these are weapons of war. i believe thez ar-15 high rifles are also weapons that belong in the theater of war. >> can i ask, what is it like to be a democrat? you're the minority party in a state where republicans hold a lot of power and particularly on this issue. it doesn't seem like there is any pathway forward for even some of the proposals you laid out earlier this year which are not dramatic gun confiscation, kind of the pillar and demagogue
here? no, i'm not surprised. this bunch, they've been tryings to protect this grou gp of folkt it's just not it's just not f feasible. ma'am,easible, there's no rhymeo reason why they're doing this. they continue down this path and it's just it's out of control that this fbi needshingo a cleaning just like the rest of washington does. they the swampof and they are helping to perpetuate that, that it's not a myth anymore. it's reality, ma'am.hing t they are outhe there pushing ths agenda and we don't need this tb anymore. >> the people you knowottom whe the bottom line is ? the people have a right to know. i mean, absolutely, they're pushing for gunion if control, gun confiscation. if they had their way, they're pushing for all these changes because of killingsio like this. yet they're going to withhold information from from the very people who they claim they're protecting. i mean, it's is obvious whating. they're doing. and it's up to every state legislator, member of congress
