San Bernardino Shooting: National Rifle Association rubbishes Obama’s gun

In an interview Friday morning, Florida Sen. Marco Rubio told CNN’s Jake Tapper on “State of the Union”. They said they are protecting the rights of the no-fly list, which is utterly absurd.

White and Hinton said they have noticed more self-defense type weapons being sold. Terrorists are using the encrypted messaging app Telegram for crowdfunding guns.

The use of assault-style weapons in Wednesday’s horrific attacks in San Bernardino, Calif., has prompted a fresh national conversation on the lack of strict gun control measures in the USA that could prevent potential terrorists from acquiring firearms.

Guns killed 33,636 people in the United States in 2013, according to federal data. We want to hear from you. “So if all of a sudden you tell everybody who’s on the watch list that you can’t do this or that, then guess what happens?”

The details of the California massacre at a holiday party – pointing at a possible link to Islamic militants and raising questions about domestic extremism – quickly knocked both Republicans and Democrats off their talking points, upending what has become a grim and predictable ritual in American politics.

Donald Trump, the GOP front-runner, appeared to differentiate himself from the rest of the field by saying he would consider supporting efforts to prohibit firearms purchases for no-fly list members. But he said he felt he needed another gun after the San Bernardino assault. While we abhor the killings, too many of Americans are loathe to give up our Second Amendment “right to keep and bear arms”. Others were shopping for handguns, including 38 Specials with pink handles, while still more showed up at the larges gun show in the West to buy ammunition for the guns they already owned. Obama has dozens of ideas for taking apart the Second Amendment, but he’s got no visible strategy for protecting Americans from the Islamists in their midst.

They mourned, they prayed, they digested their shock, and they bought guns, lots and lots of guns.

The gun-control advocacy group rates California’s gun laws No. 1 in the nation; the state ranks 42nd in its rate of gun deaths. Only the bad guys had the guns. One of those supporting them was North Carolina’s 4th District Rep. David Price.

It is the first time the newspaper has run an editorial on its front page since 1920, when it expressed dismay at the nomination of Warren G. Harding as the Republican presidential candidate, before he went on to win national elections. Bernie Sanders said on CBS’ “Face the Nation”.

This week on the Fox News Sunday’s panel, The Washington Post’s George Will said despite President Barack Obama’s gun control push in the wake of mass shootings Americans have “voted with their feet by going to gun stores”. Obama, already facing scrutiny for his strategy in Syria, has been criticized by Republicans for initially focusing on the issue of gun control after the attacks.

A similar proposal has bogged down in Congress, as has a proposal to fund research into gun violence prevention. And in some cases, there seems to be a belief that gun ownership turns a person into some lethal mix of Jack Bauer and Chuck Norris. Some guy shot and killed a TV news reporter and her cameraman while they were on the air, recorded himself doing it and put the video on social media.

That viewed was echoed in the showroom of Turner’s Outdoorsman, a San Bernardino firearms dealer just a few blocks from where Syed Rizwan Farook, 28, and Tashfeen Malik, 29, gunned down their victims at a center for people with disabilities.

“I agree-this is a “moral outrage & nat’l disgrace”. Congress stalls. The president tries to accomplish something useful with executive orders, and Congress spins the argument to executive overreach.
