@ChadPergram

A) VERY emotional speech by Sen. Chris Murphy (D-CT) on the floor about the shooting in Texas. He was a senator-elect and the sitting Congressman representing Sandy Hook when the shooting happened there in 2012.

B) Murphy: This is a choice!...this is the only country where this happens...Sandy Hook will never be the same..this town in Texas will never be the same.

C) Murphy: I am literally getting down on my hands and knees here, begging...there is a place where we can achieve an agreement (on guns)..so America will never again see a mass shooting.

Surely not scripted.

What about the other shooting in TX: 5 cops murdered by a racist BLM terrorist? What about the Black racist who traveled to white Waukesha to murder 6 whites in their Christmas parade?

Sometimes I wonder if the Gun grabbers PAY shooters to do this crap. They ALWAYS have a speech ready.

Quite so. Partisan politics on the bodies of dead children is disgusting.

Just curious. He allegedly shot his grandmother, so he had family here.

Do you know if he was a dreamer, brought here illegally? That changes the story a lot.

If he was born here to US citizens it’s different. Generations of Hispanics have lived in the SW USA—his family could have been here for centuries.

An illegal alien tranny with a rifle brought from Mexico.

And his solution is to disarm normal people.

Predictably stupid.

It appears Democrat’s lack of border security caused this.

So he is not a US citizen?

This isnā€™t the only country where this happens.

Murphy is a grandstanding ghoul.

I donā€™t believe so, no.

At most, one of Obamaā€™s ā€œdreamersā€.

Law abiding Americans, line up and hand in your guns. Each and every one of your weapons. Now!

Sorry, Senator. Not gonna happen, ever! Deal with it.

Murph? You’re a (D)? This is the chaos that your leaders want? You are obviously too stupid to realize that gun control will only keep guns out of the hands of law abiding citizens and not criminals or nutcases. Look at Chicago Murph you flaming idiot......

those events went down the memory hole, because they cannot be used by the liberals to push their narrative.

With due respect to the families who lost loved ones today.

Iā€™d tell the sinator his party is responsible for killing several thousand children just today.
