Dem Sen. Murphy: ‘I Don’t Accept the Idea that I’m Supposed to Shut Up and Not Talk About’ Gun Control
Breitbart ^ | 05/25/2022 | Trent Baker

Posted on 05/25/2022 7:37:40 AM PDT by ChicagoConservative27

Wednesday on MSNBC’s “Morning Joe,” Sen. Chris Murphy (D-CT) responded to his colleagues in the Senate and others accusing him of “politicizing” the tragic mass shooting at an elementary school in Uvalde, TX, which has reportedly left 19 children dead.

Murphy, who in an interview the night before pushed for gun control in the wake of the shooting, pushed back against the notion that he was “supposed to shut up and not talk about changing laws” following shootings. He argued that not politicizing the shootings was “a fiction created by the gun industry.”

Children that somehow escaped their filthy abortionist hands.

Just call these school shootings “delayed late term abortions”. Then they will be fine with it. In fact, they will provide the guns.

“He should bring up legislation.”

Yeah right.

In an election year.

Hold your breath.

One solution is that we need more guns, not less. Arm all the teachers who are willing and able to carry firearms and provide them with proper training and the weapons also. These greaseballs will think charger about attacking hard targets instead of unarmed kids.

Its not about GUN laws. Its about outlawing school prayer, that is the law its about. About outlawing the 10 commandments on the courthouse lawn. About not outlawing the garbage sicko violence blasted by TV into every home in America. About outlawing God from the public forum. About making Trans Homo behaviour and grooming legal and MSM making Homo Trans Sicko Pervert behaviour fashionable.

Pass laws making society reverent and moral. Then the pervert sicko violent murdering acts will eventually come to an end.

The Democrat Marxists have DESTROYED civil society. No amount of gun laws will ever restore it.

There’s common sense gun control, and then there’s gun confiscation. The Left wants the latter. They want all our guns, so they can do to us whatever they want. That’s the real agenda here.

Yep and what they claim to want right now, "Universal Background Checks", is really gun registration. You think those background checks are going to be destroyed after the buyer passes? Nope, they will be filed in a database with the names and addresses of the buyer and seller and the serial numbers of all guns changing hands. So in the future, if they do attempt confiscation, they'll have a database to hand to law enforcement of everybody that has ever engaged in a business transaction involving a gun.

What you shouldn’t do, Senator, is exploit pain and suffering for political gain.

Funny they don’t get mad at violent movies, violent music, violent video games, doctors putting kids on mind altering meds, illegal immigrants and so on.

Wait. Shouldn’t Murphy be taking about another 40 Billion to Ukraine so that they can be supplied with more guns?

Even if it weren’t an election year, there would never be proposed legislation. He needs his base crazy rabid to show up. He doesn’t care about the law. Just votes.

Okay Chris, and Schumer too, exactly what gun law would have prevented this lunatic from shooting up a classroom? He purchased the gun legally. He was a nutcase and Democrats today don’t want society to deal with loners who exhibit bizarre behavior and could eventually harm others. Chew on that for awhile.

And we’re not supposed to shut up and not talk about MURDERING BABIES IN THE WOMB either!!! The left started the killing Fields so the blame and the blood is directly on their hands. This country desperately needs a divorce it’s a house that’s divided cannot stand. We either unite or we kill each other so the best thing is for the whole nation to get state divorces! DC has served its purpose and no long functions as well the constitution meant it to ...it has become a den of thieves a cesspool of evil swamp creatures leaders who despise the American people! We need to start pushing Texas and red states to secede before we ALL become commie California Oregon San Francisco New York Chicago Illinois Washington New Mexico Nevada etc. We need to start putting out petition and then vote on it. This nation no longer stands for what it used to. We have done a disservice to all those that died to protect this nation and to keep its freedoms and God-fearing motto. We have lost our path because of a handful of powerful tools doing the bidding of the evil left wing communist demoncrats ...Pandora’s box has been opened to the point we will never get it back. So on with the states leaving the republic! The United States =The Divided States!

Senator, you are saying stuff that isn’t true and politicizing a tragedy that none of your proposed laws could have or would prevented. That’s the problem.

“Dem Sen. Murphy: ‘I Don’t Accept the Idea that I’m Supposed to Shut Up and Not Talk About’ Gun Control”

The Democrats only care about taking law abiding citizens arms away because they have to do that and kill the middle class before they can seize total power and turn our Constitutional Republic into a Democratic Socialist State ... and by the way from the 2008 Bill Ayres interview

“And when I pursued this further, they estimated they would have to eliminate 25 million people in these reeducation centers.

And when I say “eliminate,” I mean “kill.”

Twenty-five million people.”

Of the 86 countries where we have identified mass public shootings, the US ranks 56th per capita in its rate of attacks and 61st in mass public shooting murder rate. Norway, Finland, Switzerland and Russia all have at least 45 percent higher rates of murder from mass public shootings than the United States.

On the day of the shooting he was whining about bringing up legislation, anything, even if my Republican colleagues don’t agree with all of my gun control, just something, anything to make this stop within a couple hours of the shooting all the bodies were still warm.
