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.

Glancing at the mewling from that shameless asswipe even further reinforces my utter detestation of Commucrats.

At the very lease, this Democrat needs to stop weeping and wailing like a woman and act like a MAN.

Remember, they don’t want to ban abortions or puberty blockers for kids or illegal immigration but by gawd we have to do something about guns!

You can’t get upset and morn a tragedy before getting angry with someone exploiting a situation for political purposes.

Makes me sick. And the things he says aren’t even true.

the first question is how did this guy get inside? Are the doors still just wide open without someone having to admit you?

Are we sure all of that is true? Just don’t to use that to make any points until the facts are truly known and confirmed.

The founders made provision for modifying the Constitution. Any Congressman or Senator who doesn’t like the 2nd amendment has the ability to propose a new amendment to nullify the section of the Constitution he or she doesn’t like. For some reason Senator Murphy prefers histrionics to actually spending the effort to put changing the amendment to a vote in Congress and in the states. Perhaps the Senator doesn’t believe in “democracy.”

Well, that’s what one British article said.

I’d wait until the morning for confirmation.

I’ve read he’s a Dreamer, as well.

Well, for starters chris, it happens everywhere there are mentally sick people and evil. Perhaps you can’t remember or aren’t old enough to remember the attack in Norway were 67 young people on an island were killed?

The 2011 Norway attacks, referred to in Norway as 22 July (Norwegian: 22. juli)[13] or as 22/7,[14] were two domestic terrorist attacks by Anders Behring Breivik against the government, the civilian population, and a Workers’ Youth League (AUF) summer camp, in which 77 people were killed.

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/2011_Norway_attacks

There are other examples but let’s just start with that one.

The problem here chris is that not all people are equal. Some people are mentally ill and need to be isolated from other people who aren’t mentally ill. Others are just pure evil and not compatible with civil society. Harsh measures need to be taken to control both kinds of people and not the instruments they use. If they don’t get a gun they will find something else to do their damage. I can kill a man with a mechanical pencil. Do those need to be banned too?

A lot of those mentally ill people are living on the streets and using drugs supplied by programs supported by the likes of you. Those drugs just make them more mentally ill and more dangerous.

Let’s save the division and hatred your party encourages daily between races and factions of our society for some other day.

So you see chris, the problem may start with you who have coddled the people who pull the triggers on guns, slice people with knives, drive into crowds with cars and blow people up with bombs in pressure cookers.

I think that’s an old picture.

Supposedly he was an 18-year old, and another picture shows him with much sharper features.
