The usual gun banning morons on the left that ultimately want the 2nd Amdendment invalidated and ALL guns in the USA confiscated.

"Twice-failed presidential candidate Hillary Clinton attacked the National Rifle Association (NRA).

“Our grief isn’t enough. We can and must put politics aside, stand up to the NRA, and work together to try to stop this from happening again,” Clinton wrote.

Massachusetts Sen. Ed Markey demanded Congress “close the gun show loophole” in response to the shooting. (There’s no evidence at this time that Paddock bought his weapons at a gun show.)

“As after #Orlando, I will NOT be joining my colleagues in a moment of silence on the House Floor that just becomes an excuse for inaction,” Massachusetts Rep. Seth Moulton wrote.

“Thinking of everyone in #LasVegas, and praying Congress will have the courage to do more than stand in silence to commemorate them,” Moulton wrote in another tweet.

New York Rep. Carolyn Maloney demanded Congress “show they care by taking action” on gun control.

“It has been barely a year since what was previously the largest mass shooting in American history — the deadly attack at Pulse nightclub. In the interim, thousands more have been lost to the daily, ruthless toll of gun violence,” Connecticut Sen. Richard Blumenthal said in a statement.

Like clock work and as usual it is all about fund raiser letter material from liberal schmucks who want to believe “we can only be safe from guns when no one has guns.”

The calls for “gun control” have pretty much become an automatic reflex of the gun grabbers, and sometimes, it has worked. Self-defense, in their estimation, is not a valid reason for possession or carry, no time, nowhere, no excuse ever acceptable.

Tell that to the guy firing AT you. Gun-free zones are shooting galleys for those who do not pay attention to the letter of the law anyway.

Gun control banned the ARMED DRONE that would have quickly killed sniper.

Democrats murdered Puerto Rican children, by teamsters blocking food to needy. Democrat registration & background checks are needed.

We need Democrat control of their murderous ways.

You may not like this, but in my opinion this tragedy has more to do with the evil and destructive actions and programs of our politicians year after year and less to do with external terrorism.

Gun control is not the answer. Without guns, he would have found another way to pull of the attack (vehicle, bombs, etc.)

Hillary Clinton, the ultra narcissistic power hungry freak wants laws so the common American citizens cannot possess firearms. She and her ilk are the very reason the Second Amendment exists. End of story.

What "gun control" would be effective?

Nothing short of a full ban on rifles of all types could possibly work. But then, criminals intent on committing murder are not going to discouraged by breaking gun-control laws. They will get their weapons somehow -- Americans possess millions of rifles.

Had Hillary been elected president and DiFi succeeded is passing legislation that requires us to turn in our rifles, imagine the loss of life that would follow?! (It would be more the 50).

If we could have gun control where Democrats are prevented from owning or possesing guns, there would be almost no murders in this country.

This event is proof positive.

Gun control DOES NOT WORK.

This gun is very unlikely to be one of the weapons someone had to go though the process to purchase and own legally.

It is almost certain to be an illegal weapon, that laws did not stop, just like they don’t stop inner city kids from owning guns and killing people with.

Democrats have been calling for “gun control since 1962, always just one little step at a time. Finally in 1976, Nelson “Pete” Shields, founder of Handgun control Inc, now the Brady Center spilled his guts on the REAL purpose of gun control.

Nelson T. ‘Pete’ Shields
Founder of Handgun Control, Inc.

“I’m convinced that we have to have federal legislation to build on. We’re going to have to take one step at a time, and the first step is necessarily — given the political realities — going to be very modest.

Of course, it’s true that politicians will then go home and say, ‘This is a great law. The problem is solved.’ And it’s also true that such statements will tend to defuse the gun-control issue for a time.

So then we’ll have to strengthen that law, and then again to strengthen that law, and maybe again and again. Right now, though, we’d be satisfied not with half a loaf but with a slice. Our ultimate goal — total control of handguns in the United States — is going to take time.

My estimate is from seven to ten years. The problem is to slow down the increasing number of handguns sold in this country. The second problem is to get them all registered. And the final problem is to make the possession of all handguns and all handgun ammunition — except for the military, policemen, licensed security guards, licensed sporting clubs, and licensed gun collectors — totally illegal.”

-Pete Shields, Chairman and founder, Handgun Control Inc., “A Reporter At Large: Handguns,” The New Yorker, July 26, 1976, 57-58

“Yes, I’m for an outright ban [on handguns].”

-Pete Shields, Chairman emeritus, Handgun Control, Inc., 60 Minutes interview

HCI, around 1984, came out in favor of a ban on semi-auto rifles and shotguns.

Here are my memories of all the “gun control” schemes the Democrats have proposed....

And to think, in 1962 Thomas J Dodd and Emauell Cellar proposed the first federal law on common firearms.

1962; “We don’t want to take away your guns, we ONLY want to register handguns! Rifles and shotguns will not be affected”.

1964: “We only want to register all your guns, not ban them! Only Army surplus guns will be banned.”

1968: “We only want to register your guns, and ban “Saturday Night Specials” and small foreign handguns along with army surplus rifles!” (They got the ban on 5 shot army surplus rifles and handguns and small foreign pistols)

1970: “We only want to ban Saturday night specials! Large handguns and rifles will not be affected!”

1976: “We only want to ban all handguns! Long guns will not be affected!”

1981: “The NRA is a rifle organization! They should give up their handguns, and they can keep their rifles!”- Lee Grant on GMA

1984: “We must ban “assault Rifles, unsuitable or hunting!”

1989: George Bush bans import of some foreign made “assault rifles”.

1992: Assault rifle ban passed by Clinton.

2000: first calls to ban single shot .50 cal rifles...

2012 calls for MORE bans on semi auto rifles and handguns. If you can’t ban them then go after ammo limits, the magazines and styles of the stocks.

And so it continues.

They lied to us in 1962.
They lied to us in 1964.
They lied to us in 1968.
They lied to us in 1970.
They lied to us in 1976.
They lied to us in 1981.
They lied to us in 2013,

AND THEY ARE LYING TO US NOW!
