Kasich to Trump: 'Take some steps' on gun control

Kasich should take the lead by releasing his armed security. Why does an elected official deserve any more protection than the average citizen?

[redcatcherb412]

Isn’t legislation kind of out of the executive branch hands until a bill needs signed or vetoed ? Or, is Kasich wanting an anti-2nd EO that would be swatted down by the supremes ? Either way, his calling out the President to either submit legislation or write an EO is ludicrous.

I agree. As of this week, all Democrats should Surrender the Guns.

[Polyxene]

I’ll be SO glad when he is gone from office! He’ll probably land in the DC swamp among all the other RAT-Commie swamp creatures. BTW — Hey Johnny, we didn’t hear much from you when those two cops were killed in Westerville — right in your own backyard! POS RAT-Commie!

From the same people letting in illegals and crazies get school rights in Amerida to shoot up schools: drop your guns

Fck these people, they need to be tarred and feathered

"'Take some steps' on gun control."

You can control them a lot better if you are standing still and using a rest.

Kasich and CNN fellow travelers.

If you take a few steps forward, you’re more likely to hit what you’re aiming at.

[redgolum]

He wants a ban. No elite class likes the idea of peasants who are armed.

[Presbyterian Reporter]

Have you all noticed the Leftists only point to guns as being the ‘problem”?

While we are drawing attention to:
1. Local law enforcement who was called to the shooters home 39 times and did not Baker Act him.
2. FBI who ignored clear warnings about the shooter.
3. NAACP who participated in stopping reporting of student criminal infractions to the police.
4. Teachers, social workers, doctors who are reluctant to report a bad kid because it will mean hours of busy work to defend the report.
5. Hollywood who produces extremely violent films depicting the glory of killing another person.
6. Video game producers who create addictive violent games and in the case of Nikolas Cruz where he engaged in violent gaming 15 hours per day.

Trump to Kasich, shut up

[Dilbert San Diego]

Boil the ocean?

I’ve been heard that one before.....

[Not A Snowbird]

Like what? We have a Pesident, not a dictator.

[JudgemAll]

They all got the Marxist infection deep... wondering if they are not blackmailed as I would not be surprised Kasich pressured to welcome all these transvestites

[Ronaldus Magnus]

John Kasich is a traitor to our Second Amendment freedom and he was almost single handedly responsible for the 1994 assault weapons ban because of his behind-the-scenes betrayal of his Republican colleges. He also voted for the Brady law.

The Wikipedia article below explains how the Republicans had successfully blocked the Assault Weapons Ban until Kasich negotiated a sellout with Leon Panetta. I once (many, many years ago) thought Kasich had presidential potential, but now I know that he is a enemy to all conservatives.

Wikipedia article on Kasich's Congressional Career:

In 1994, Kasich was one of the Republican leaders to support a last-minute deal with President Bill Clinton to pass the Federal Assault Weapons Ban. After a series of meetings with Clinton's Chief of Staff, Leon Panetta, a longtime friend of Kasich, the assault weapons ban was passed when 42 Republicans crossed party lines and voted to ban assault weapons with the Democrats. His support of the assault-weapons ban angered the National Rifle Association, which gave Kasich an "F" rating in 1994 as a result.

“All these people say “do something about guns”... When I was a high level manager I always told my subordinates if you come to me with a complaint you better also have a suggestion on how to fix it. What would these folks suggest?”

I agree with this 100%. As an executive you better be bringing me recommendations and solutions and what you are prepared to do. But it does make Kasich feel better about himself by crying “do something!”

“Pappy wuz a mail carryin’ man, lawd, lawd......”

[raiderboy]

And what does mr. Kasick have in mind with in our constitutional framework? Which brings me to the so called mentally ill. Know this if nothing else in this discussion. Peoples civil and constitutional rights are removed only for adjudicated finding by a court— NOT A LIST somewhere. What is mental illness?? be very specific. It is patently absurd to think that you can take civil rights away without due process. Do you actually think that the 2nd amendment can be denied because some doctor is judge and jury? Don’t be silly. You would have a doctor conclude that all Christians are mentally ill . for God ‘s sake!! No — you have to go to court. You have a lawyer or one appointed for you and you get a jury trial!! I am embarrassed for those that think otherwise.

HEY! His pappy was a mailman...chill out.

[MayflowerMadam]

I don’t recall any libs or sons of mailmen telling Obama to take steps on gun control when he had two years when he could’ve done it with not a single problem. NOW it’s Trump’s problem?
