MSNBC's Tur and Panel Lament No New Gun Control in 2017

On Thursday's MTP Daily on MSNBC, during the show's regular "The Lid" segment, substitute host Katy Tur and her three guests fretted over the failure of gun control advocates to pass any new gun laws in the aftermath of high-profile mass shootings in 2017. Even the lone Republican-leaning panel member -- MSNBC contributor Susan Del Percio -- was coming down on the left-leaning side of the issue as she also seemed unhappy with Congress moving ahead with expanding concealed carry rights nationwide.

Tur began the segment by asking if there were any stories that should have received more media attention in 2017, leading frequent MSNBC guest Eddie Glaude of Princeton University to argue that the recent shootings at Aztec High School in New Mexico should have gotten more coverage to help spur the passage of more gun control. Tur then commented:

Even the mass shootings that did get a lot of focus -- Las Vegas and the one down in Texas -- they were here and then they were gone, and we kept hearing from lawmakers about how now is not the time to talk about gun control and talk about guns. Chuck (Todd) had a, you know, his take on that that went viral, as it should have. When is the time to talk about it if it's not right after it happens? Are we ever really going to talk seriously about gun control?

Yep, I’d heard some about that.

She’s a rabid liberal and I think he’s gone wacko. They showed a picture of Bruce Jenner on one magazine and he did not look well.

These guys need some counseling that will not reinforce their delusions of being “women”.

Trump is draining the national swamp. We need to drain California of conservative taxpayers and take our tax dollars with us.

Let California collapse behind us.

“Are we ever really going to talk seriously about gun control?”

Sure, I’ll talk.

“No. You can’t have my guns. You’ll have to kill me to get them.”

You’re move, whatever your name is.
