Jeb Bush said Saturday. Bush, who plans to meet with black ministers in Charleston, South Carolina, on Monday, said identifying potentially violent people before they commit such crimes is a better approach than further restrictions on gun ownership. We as a society better figure out how we identify these folks long before they feel compelled to take up a gun and kill innocent people, the former Florida governor said at a town hall meeting. And then, this . . .
Afterward, he told reporters gun control was an issue that should be sorted out at the state level.
Rural areas are very different than big, teeming urban areas, he said.

Sorry, the headline IS accurate. Jeb twisted himself into a pretzel trying to ingratiate himself with every faction of the pro/anti gun control constituencies....and such twists satisfy no one.....particularly, 2nd amendment supporters.
Why can't he come right out and say with conviction and without hedging that he supports the right of the people to keep and bear arms?
It's because he doesn't!

“...said identifying potentially violent people before they commit such crimes...”
How does that work? They are charged and arrested without first committing a crime?
Another reason Jeb Bush will not get my vote - ever. Even if he is the GOP nominee.
Don’t all Bushes support gun control historically? I remember Dubya saying he’d sign an extension of the Assault Weapons Ban if it got to his desk. And didn’t GHWB make a public display of cancelling his lifetime NRA membership?
Work? It's a line of bull. He's schmoozing for votes.
The RKBA does not make exceptions for crazy people or for people whom the authorities might deem crazy.
different from
Jeb Bush does not want to be President. He is in the mainstream of Republican aspirants. He covets the honor of the Republican Nomination and will fight hard and spend as much money as he can for that but he does not want to be President.
The blame lies entirely with the corrupt GOP, and people like you who blame the citizens.
Maybe Jeb can identify potentially offensive newspaper articles before they're written too.
And books! Lots of political books that might ‘upset’ liberals could be unidentified and not printed - saving all the effort that would go into book burnings....
Hey Jeb - have you ever considered the possibility that corrupt narcissistic politicians might find their ‘opponents’ potentially violent? And it might have more to do with the politicians sense of entitlement than any real 'danger'.
This stupidity is one more reason - added to the 12,000 that already exist - NOT to vote for Jeb Bush. He's an effing liberal elites with 4 conservative ideas.
Donald Trump has said he supports banning "assault weapons", as if there were such a thing.
He has also praised gun-grabber Michael Bloomberg for "putting his money where his mouth is on gun control".
Liberals hate guns.
Jeb, M Kehoe supports gun control. The ability to hit the target is critical for staying the tyrant's hand.
Bye Jeb.

Hold on a second, maybe not. See the 2nd post I made about jebby boy:

Still, not on my top 20 list.
The PERP that Murdered the Family in D.C. and their Maid, four Victims in total including a Ten Year Old Boy, used a Baseball Bat and a Knife before he set the House on Fire to cover the Crime.
The Murderer was one of Obama’s Fantasy Sons and he had an extensive Criminal Record.
Tell us Jeb, would a Background Check or some Psychic Government Worker have stopped him?
Sounds like a Tom Cruise Movie should become a reality.
