Because someone who wants to kill 100+ Americans and willing to die himself will stop if we pass another law.
He wouldn’t think of getting around a background check - that would be illegal.
Or killing someone who passed the check and has the weapon he wants - also illegal.
Or using explosives instead of bullets - illegal again.
That would be a socialist progressive, then. As opposed to an outright communist.
Another mask drops.
Now we know why he is a "Former Senator" , he was in the wrong party !.
Time to use your big head , rather than thinking with the little head.
" A mind is a terrible thing to waste ",.. despite congestive stupidity !
Never liked him. He can endorse whomever he wants, won’t make a rat’s arse difference. Surprised it even got a headline, much less my click. Ugh.
Uh oh...... Larry Pressler another Mormon wacko RINO. I am seeing a pattern. And Mormons used to be super conservative and full of common sense.
I am guessing this Pressler toad is a connected DC lobbyist.
SD hasn’t had anyone good since Karl Mundt, and he strayed on occasion too.
every endorsement she gets is exactly 1 vote (if that)
As mentioned in related threads, it shouldn't surprise anybody that a former, post-17th Amendment ratification, low-information senator doesnt seem to understand that the states have never delegated to the feds, expressly via the Constitution, the specific power to regulate civilian arms.
It is disturbing that federal laws regulating civilian arms seem to have started appearing in the books during the FDR Administration, FDR and the Congress at the time infamous for making laws that it could not justify under its constitutional Article I, Section 8-limited powers.

Corrections, insights welcome.
But the media keep helping him with his "I'm a Republican" shtick.
This terrorist would have passed a “universal background check” and did pass the background check just a week ago. The politician is just exploiting death for political gain.
As for an assault weapons ban, the democrat would simply have murdered people with a semi-automatic rifle that had a wood stock instead of a scary black stock on the same semiautomatic rifle.
There are no reasonable restrictions that have not already been passed. The only fight is whether they will pass laws to disarm us or not. My vote is not.
Primaried by Tim Johnson.
If I am recalling correctly, he isn’t even a Republican anymore - didn’t he run as an independent against the Republican nominee for Senate?
Somebody buy this drama queen a new dress. Pressler can go shopping with Lindsay Graham in the Women’s Section in K-Mart. Two cowardly snowflakes in the summer sun.
Wow, a former senator?! From South Dakota, no less??!!
Didn’t POS pass a background check?
“Former Sen. Larry Pressler (R-S.D.) called for universal background checks on all gun sales and an assault weapons ban Monday...”
Which would’ve done ABSOLUTELY NOTHING to stop the Orlando Murdering Muzzie from killing 50 people.
This morning, I woke up and told my wife, Did I really do that? he said. “But I did.
Sounds like the “morning after reaction” of a drug or alcohol addict ... needs to cut back and try to re-interface with reality!!!
Hence: “Former”.
