Senator Kirsten Gillibrand On Trump’s Reversal On Background Checks | All In | MSNBC

  1. Am I allowed to citizens arrest Mitch or is that illegal? I can’t find any laws, saying I can’t, giving that his actions are possibly endangering millions of US citizens…

  2. The problem with republicans is that they couldn’t care less about what happens to Americans, well, that is until it affects them, or one of their loved ones. Republican Mike Turner announced his support for a ban on sales of “military style weapons” following the deadly mass shooting in downtown Dayton Ohio after he discovered his daughter was close to being one of the casualties.

    “I believe these are necessary steps forward in protecting our country and a testament to American values, which include protecting human life,” Turner, said in a statement

    Turner, a Dayton native, said he would also support legislation placing restrictions on high-capacity magazines as well as so-called red-flag laws, which allow police and family members to “quickly identify people who are dangerous and remove their ability to harm others.

    Turner made this statement after he found out that his teenage daughter was across the street from the shooting that night and she had just missed being out on the street when the shooting started by just seconds.

    So now all of a sudden he cares. He should have cared back in 2012 when 20 babies were cut down with an assault rifle in Sandy Hook.

    1. The massacred students of Virginia Tech will change something … thoughts and prayers
      The butchered toddlers of Sandy Hook will change something … thoughts and prayers
      The slaughtered people of Las Vegas will change something … thoughts and prayers
      The slayed people of El Paso will change something … thoughts and prayers
      Nothing will change and nothing will stop this. Never … thoughts and prayers

  3. Hahaha, Trump is bought and paid for… period. Please tell me again how he is “for the people”. No new healthcare, tax cut for the wealthy, more pollution and less regulation, for profit. Taxing the masses through tariffs because he has no idea what they are or do. Mr Incompetent.

  4. This just proves that the Repubs really are Repugnant Republikkkans! Vote the whole lot out & may this despicable party be destroyed once & for all.

  5. t’rump last week: “We need intelligent background checks.”
    NRA: **makes the money fingers-rubbing motion and shakes head**
    t’rump this week: “Our background checks are fine!”
    😄😆😅😂

    1. To expect that a republican do something against gun violence is like booing at the special olympics. A waste of time.

    1. Frank Brittain Would that also apply to private citizens such as George Soros, and his funding of antifa and the pipeline to bring in illegals from the south?

  6. The news for 3 years: Trump is Hitler

    Also the news: Give Hitler your guns America.

    Trump is not Hitler but the second amendment is for the day there is one in charge. What other rights do you all think should be given up by US citizens?

  7. Nothing is going to change until corporate money is removed from Capital Hill. What we are witnessing now is fascism 101. Politicians, especially republicans, aren’t working for, or representing the will of the people. Instead people like Moscow Mitch, are representing the desires and interests of corporations and special interests. This has resulted in the will of the people being completely subverted. How else would you explain the fact that at least 90% of Americans want to see new gun laws passed, and yet republicans refuse to do anything. Mitch McConnell refuses to even allow a vote on anything regarding gun legislation.

    “The liberty of a democracy is not safe if the people tolerated the growth of private power to a point where it becomes stronger than the democratic state itself. That in its essence is fascism: ownership of government by an individual, by a group, or any controlling private power.” 
    ― Franklin D. Roosevelt

  8. The one common dominating factor in most every mass shooting since Sandy Hook has been the Political Ideology that the shooters have embraced as their driving force and their justification for their actions…

  9. The massacred students of Virginia Tech will change something … thoughts and prayers
    The butchered toddlers of Sandy Hook will change something … thoughts and prayers
    The slaughtered people of Las Vegas will change something … thoughts and prayers
    The slayed people of El Paso will change something … thoughts and prayers
    Nothing will change and nothing will stop this. Never … thoughts and prayers
