Connecticut Sen. Chris Murphy does not shy away from the fact that guns on are on the national ballot this November.
“If Donald Trump wins, it will be a pretty dramatic setback,” says Murphy, who has emerged as the Democratic Party’s most vocal champion of new gun regulation. “Not just because how terrible he’ll be on the issue, but the fact that a presidential candidate who ran asking for a mandate on guns lost.”
For Murphy, the fight is personal. He had just been elected to the Senate in 2012 when word arrived that there had been an incident at an elementary school in his House district. The Senator-elect watched in horror as Newtown, Conn., became the site of the deadliest mass school shooting in U.S. history.

Just one more reason why SWMNBP must never be President.
(She Who Must Never Be President)
Gun ‘reform’. Is that what we’re calling it now?
More powerful than a locomotive ... able to leap tall buildings in a single bound ....
WE .. the people .. will BE the government and I believe President Trump will have enough of a handle on "his people" that he will keep us from going off a deep end.
The goal is to pass federal concealed carry and prohibit states from passing laws limiting magazine counts and types of semi-automatic long guns. Trump will get national laws to over-ride and “trump” state laws so kiss your CT unconstitutional gun laws goodbye nazi-boy.
“A Hillary Clinton Loss Would Hobble Gun Reform”

What’s the problem with “hobbling” more restrictive laws?
And now they are calling restrictions “reforms”?
Well, why not? After all, who could possibly be against “reforms”? /s
Cry me a river, Murphy, ya’ pussbag.
My thoughts on where Murphy can go and how to get there can’t be posted due to the code of conduct.
By Jove, I think he’s got it!
“..Gun ‘reform’. Is that what we’re calling it now?..”
Every time you see the word REFORM, run like hell....
That is the government weasel work for REGISTRATION AND CONFISCATION from law abiding citizens.
Democrats intentionally permit gun crime to propagate, because it augments their case that gun crime is out of control. They appreciate the opportunity violent crime has to enhance their ulterior motive of banning guns. What are a few hundred deaths of impoverished minorities compared to the leverage those deaths are worth toward their end? His big worry here is that if a candidate loses that opportunity and a crackdown ensues, it will work - invalidating their argument among those who pay the dearest of costs.
Ugh—someone take my senator — please.
(And the other one plus my guv too, while you’re at it...)
To Communist Chris Murphy: the destruction of gun control is on of the reasons to defeat Crooked Hillary.
Yes ... and when socialists in South America used to talk about "land reform" it meant theft.
Gun reform, climate change, highway robbery... all the same thing.
We need Common Sense ‘Rat Control.
Someone should ask this putz what he plans to do when the Gov says to turn in your guns and no one will? Then what smart guy?
We need to close the Gun Burglary Loophole.
