[Trump20162020]

During the June 13 monologue on Conan, host Conan O’Brien referenced the Orlando terror attack and said no one should be able to own “a semiautomatic rifle.”

He described semiautomatic rifles as “weapons of war” that “have no place in civilian life.”

They have been around a while.

The 50 people would still be dead whether from a rifle or pistol................................ or a gallon or two of gasoline.

[lexington minuteman 1775]

Well you are welcome to come an try to take mine Conan...

[TexasFreeper2009]

Islam is a weapon of war that has no place in a civilized life.

there, fixed it.

[faithhopecharity]

sorry Conan. if you don’t like America, move somewhere else

[Bob]

C'mon, Conan -- Be the first one through the door to take mine. No, not some cop, you personally.

[Vaquero]

Islam has declared war on United States and the government wants us to surrender our weapons. At least now we know whose side they are on.

We have a WINNER!!!!

[headstamp 2]

Cone head doesn’t even know what a semiautomatic rifle is.

[b4its2late]

Mass email no doubt now instead of faxing....

[NorthMountain]

I like to believe I have a shred of common sense

Well guess what, Sparkydoodles: You haven't. Not even a single shred.

I simply do not understand why anybody in this country is allowed to purchase and own a semi-automatic assault rifle.

Because we have a God-given, inherent human right to defend ourselves against criminals and tyrants. It isn't rocket science; even you should be able to understand it.

Nobody I know, or have ever met in my entire life, should have access to a weapon that can kill so many people so quickly.

Well, there's a thorough indictment of your circle of friends. Gee ... what sort of psychopaths do you surround yourself with?

[Popman]

Unless that POS in Orlando converted his Sig Carbine weapon to fully automatic, Conan O'Brien is talking out of his butt...

A handgun with an extended magazine could inflict as much death and damage as a semi-auto rifle...

The real problem here is it was a gun free zone...

Just one person carrying could have stopped this guy before he slaughtered so many...

[blueunicorn6]

Nobody should be allowed to vote for a dipshirt like Obama.

Has everyone forgotten about the “suicide vest” this guy was wearing?

It doesn’t matter what he has in his hands.

Murder starts in the mind and in the heart.

[HomerBohn]

Is this jackass still on television?

Some us fondly remember the good old days of Jack Parr and Steve Allen.

[colorado tanker]

Betcha Starbucks for a week that this is another damn fool who doesn’t know the difference between automatic and semi-automatic.

[mrmeyer]

Conan, put on your big boy pants and feel free to stack up on my door to practice what you preach.

[odawg]

What makes Conan O’Brien think he can address and advise the entire nation on guns?

[Dr.Deth]

"These are weapons of war, and they have no place in civilian life.

This is exactly why they are essential to civilian life, unless your idea of civilian life is that of a serf.

FBI: More People Killed with Hammers, Clubs Each Year than Rifles

In 2005, the number of murders committed with a rifle was 445, while the number of murders committed with hammers and clubs was 605. In 2006, the number of murders committed with a rifle was 438, while the number of murders committed with hammers and clubs was 618.

The data doesn't lie: More guns equals less gun homicide.

Hiram Maxim conversion of a Winchester 66 to a semi-auto. They've been around for a while.
