Coons: ‘So Much More to Do’ on Gun Laws — Not Protecting Our Own People

From what I’ve read, this shooting occurred in a bowling alley. One customer there with a concealed pistol and minimal training could have stopped the shooter cold.

So of course Democrats want to make sure that this defensive action couldn’t happen.

And I don’t think that’s because Democrats are evil. It’s because they are naive, and have a childlike unwillingness to think things through. They are just like the prohibitionists from the 1920s who wanted to ban alcohol. That ban failed completely. Anyone who wanted alcohol could still get it.

As a side note, it really is not helpful to call Democrats evil, although some certainly are. Most are just stubbornly naive. You can reason with them to an extent. I’ve had some success comparing gun control to Prohibition. Alcohol prohibition failed. How can you expect gun prohibition to be any different?

He had the gun illegally- he was cited for domestic violence and as a felony conviction could not own one from what I understand.

The moral to the story is that gun laws did NOTHING to stop him from getting a gun illegally, and throwing more gun laws on the books will do NOTHING to hinder felons hellbent on murdering people

The fbi apparently knew of this man- he ws on their radar, but once again, he was allowed to roam free, as a mentally sick individual, and what he did is the inevitable result,of that fact. It wasn’t a lack,of gun laws that allowed him to commit the heinous acts, but rather it WAS a lack of mental health monitoring and closer scrutiny thst allowed him to

[DaBroasta]

I’d suggest the idea of locking up the crazies . . .

Better watch that kinda talk--the FBI might put you on their watch list as a MAGA extremist.

We need to look at inner cities that have been under Demicrat control fir decades to fully appreciate the promise this D politician is making with respect to what it looks like when the government protects the people according to his plans.

[SJackson]

Exactly, possibly including this one. A number of the articles have said he was committed to a mental hospital. If he was committed rather than entering voluntarily the probability is he couldn’t possess firearms. But as you noted, criminals don’t obey the law.

[JimRed]

“A shooting happens, and the liberals flip the switch, and start up the gun control debate.”

They can’t comprehend the simple phrase “shall not be infringed”. Even bad guys have the right to self defense. Those who abuse the right must be punished; leave the rest of us alone!

[JimRed]

Those who can’t be trusted to be armed shoul not be running around loose anyway!

[Liz]

Coons is apparently on the side of massive arms giveaways to a foreign country.
So does this mean we Americans get all the arms we want?

Lindsay Graham led a delegation of US Senators....5 Repubs and 5 Dems.... to Israel. Maryland Democrat Ben Cardin, Rhode Island Democratic Jack Reed, Alaska Republican Dan Sullivan, Richard Blumenthal, Democrat of Connecticut, Susan Collins (Maine Republican), Cory Booker (New Jersey Democrat), Katie Britt (Alabama Republican), Chris Coons, Delaware Senator, John Thune, SDakota Senator.

Israeli Opposition Leader Yair Lapid (center) says Israel needs more US military aid.

Anyone named Coons can’t be taken seriously!

[dpetty121263]

What a group of utter losers!

[Cobra64]

Here’s an idea: Outlaw murder.

Execute the shooter.

[Liz]

You got that right.

[BookmanTheJanitor]

If there is anyone who knows about not protecting their own...it's Coons.

[rarestia]

I’m sure the bowling alley could’ve prevented this with a No Guns sign. The shooter would’ve moved on. /sarc

[OKSooner]

"Senator Chris Coons (D-DE) said Thursday on CNNs “This Morning” that the United States needed to do “so much more” on gun laws because “we are not protecting our own people.”

Then close the ******g border and impeach Mayorkas.

The wounded and dead were not protected by any guns. The ghouls standing on their warm bodies demanding gun control are the very ones who disarmed these people through laws, lawfare, and propaganda. They are also the ones who insist crazy people be given access to society and they are the ones who erode our Judeo-Christian morality.

Question is if they are also complicit in egging on a “Known Wolf.” Remember Garland Texas Draw Muhammad Contest where a federal pig encouraged the would be murderers, then drove behind them to the scene taking pictures and notifying no one that mass murder was about to take place.

[lowbridge]

Change your racist name.

...Says the guy who aggressively defends open borders with invading gang members and military age men from around the globe.

[HartleyMBaldwin]

Every jurisdiction already has a law forbidding shooting anyone without a sufficient reason. Further gun laws are superfluous.

[sauropod]

Hey Coons, you Marxist. How about NO!
