The implication is that our society is awash with FULLY-automatic weapons, and that almost anyone can get one as easy as ordering a pizza.
The idea is to SCARE the general population into supporting licensing and registration schemes that will eventually result in a TOTAL BAN on entire classes of firearms (the ultimate goal of the likes of schumer, lautenburg, mccarthy, sarah brady, AND RINO-rudy).
It's TYPICAL LIBERAL B.S, to create a FALSE "crisis", and then make the public believe that ONLY government (ever EXPANDING government in the LA-LA-LAND that IS LIBERAL dem and RINO politics) can "solve" the crisis. This may fly in a inner-city hell-hole that is populated with sheeple, but it won't fly in MOST of our great country.
Of course we conservative gun owners and supporters and defenders of the 2nd Amendment don't want non-citizens illegally obtaining firearms, whether through normal channels (gun shops, etc.), OR on the street. The point IS, OUR answer is to come down hard on criminals that TRY and obtain such weapons (MANDATORY 5 years or more just fro TRYING), AND for other measures, like, in this case, the federal gov coming down on this foreigner playing our immigration/visit system.
RINO-rudy, and his gun-grabbing buddies answer is to make it extremely difficult, or impossible, for EVERYONE, including law-abiding citizens, from obtaining and using firearms for any purpose, legal or not.
That's UN-Constitutional, UN-American, and can NOT be accepted belief in a Republican Presidential candidate, much less a President.
"The point IS, OUR answer is to come down hard on criminals that TRY and obtain such weapons (MANDATORY 5 years or more just fro TRYING)"
The law enforcement approach to terror is what the Dems propose and what brought us 9/11.
As a NYer who has followed Rudy for years I know one thing about the man - his speech is anything but politically correct.
