Listening to everyone, gun owners and nongun owners alike on this issue. if there s a better way to get them off the streets or ensure they re never used against us, i m all ears. but after listening to people including owners of ar-15s, this makes the most sense to me. now, it will obviously require us to work with congress and the constituencies of those members of congress who i ve been going out and talking to and listening to and who are there, and you mentioned that public polling is already beginning to reflect a seismic shift on this issue in america. it just needs to be reflected in our representation in congress. it needs to be reflected in the person who sinate white house. so i know we can lead that effort. i know america is ready, and i know we have so much leadership out there with moms demand and march for our lives and others who are making sure this country is ready foofinalto finally movs issue after decades of inaction. ....

Co president of brady, an organization focused on preventing gun violence. chris brown, good to see you. when congress comes back this week, what do you want to see happen? the senate take up s 42. the companion measure that would actually close the loophole that we have right now that allows private sales of guns to happen with no background check at all. we ve learned in the odessa shooting that that s how the shooter apparently got his gun even though he was a prohibited purchaser. one in five guns sold today is sold with no background check at all. the senate can fix that by passing s42 and having americans sign it. 97% of americans support this measure so we want that to move forward. we also want extreme risk laws to be promoted in the states and ....
Met with so far has been the nra. although you rightly note that he s changed his position at least several times since pa parkland on this issue. look, brady represents both gun owners and non gun owners alike. we have one mission. that s to solve the epidemic of gun violence and we re talking to all lawmakers. i think too few of them who are on the republican side of the aisle are really listening on this issue although we have convinced many to join us in this fight. although sometimes you don t have to have a face-to-face with the president because he s a big consumer of news organizations programs just like this and perhaps this is your opportunity in which to make a plea to him. what would you say to him if he was listen bing right now? i would say there s no issue, mr. president, that you can find in the american public today in which there is greater ewan imty than to fix this issue of gun violence. and that he has the opportunity to say he wants expanded ....
Let him carry? a lot of this stuff sounds like to be honest and blunt, it makes it easier for mass shooters. absolutely. and these are instruments of terror. 22 people killed with the variant of an ak-47. in el paso on august 3rd and the killer s mom when the ak-46 came in called police in texas and says what does my son need with this, and the police said sorry, miami, perfectly legal for thim to do this. and now we ve made it permissible to carry a firearm like that into a church or school that has suffered four mass shootings in less than two years. this is absolutely crazy, but the optimism can be found in the people that we re listening to. the politicians in texas are an indicator. republicans, democrats, gun owners and nongun owners alike. and they re going to be heard in this next election. ....
