There is a very good reason why our Founding Fathers worded the Second Amendment as they did. What part of "SHALL NOT BE INFRINGED" is so damned hard for some people to comprehend?

What an asshole.

NO freedoms will be conceded or given up.

I’m damn tired of having fewer rights in this country then illegal immigrants or being part of the selected minority groups who get extra benefits in this government.

Are the illegal immigrants going to abide by the gun laws?

Hell no.

Lighten up Frances.

An American would NEVER say “some freedoms have to be given up.” Only a yellow-bellied coward would say that. Americans died for those freedoms Frankie. They aren’t yours to give up.

Who’s going to enforce these gun laws? The FBI? So when someone calls the FBI with a tip about a gun law violation, does the call get routed to the round file?

Francis Rooney should resign. What a pathetic loser!

The Bil of Rights shouldn’t need to be fought for every damned day. Fire every damned politician that tries to enact any damned law to belittle them, and any damned judge as well that does not declare them un Constitutional.

No, I am not going to give up my freedom because the FBI refused to do its job, and because schools refuse to protect their students, and because parents are content to send their kids to schools who refuse to protect their students.

You want dead students, you got dead students. Grats.

These sad kids are being mainlined now which id reckless but before the Libs set them free in the 1970s
they were treated separately and carefully .

I truly believe that under Obama the FBI compiled a database of gun owners illegally through NICS. You heard it here 1st.

That’s why we have the 2nd Amendment, so we DON’T HAVE TO GIVE UP ANY OF OUR FREEDOMS.

Someone show this RINO to the door.

It’s a good thing this kid didn’t watch mythbusters. The death & destruction with household products could have far exceeded any type of firearms. Point being, sadly the killing was done by a disturbed person who would find a way to kill.

Rep. Francis Rooney (R-FL) stated that “some freedoms are going to have to be given up”

Of course, what Rooney really means but is too cowardly to say is that "some freedoms are going to have to be taken away". Yeah, sorry Congressman - that's not how America works. It's appalling that a member of Congress would say something this idiotic.

People are driving two Ton Assault Vehicles on the Nation’s Highways and Byways every minute of every day.

If I or anyone else full of pure Evil wanted to Kill dozens of Children in one fell swoop, all we would need to do is aim our Cars and Trucks at a crowded School Crosswalk.

The very idea that these so called Representatives think they can regulate the deadly combination of Evil and Human Ingenuity is beyond comprehension.

The so called Mentally Ill Murderer planned and executed his Evil. He didn’t snap, he wasn’t possessed with sudden rage, he considered all his options and formulated a plan.

If a Gun wasn’t available to him, I’m sure he could have armed himself with a Rented or Stolen Motor Vehicle (much like ISIS) and pulled off a different horrific act with the same damage done to the Innocent Victims and their Families.

When pure Emotionalism creates Law without a dose of Common Sense reality, the Law is suspect and ends up doing more harm than good.

Anchor Alex Witt also asked, “Is there a reason that you can think of why any private citizen needs to own an AR-15 assault rifle?

And the mendacity continues...but it's MSNBC, so it's the norm.

They don’t want to protect us, but they do want to control us.

There is no moral or legal obligation to obey any laws that violate the US Constitution.

It is by force (i.e. the point of a gun) that government makes us obey unconstitutional laws. It is only the fear of an armed citizenry that keeps these wannabe totalitarians even partly in place.

Every one of these anti gun people in congress knows full well that their desire to disarm the population is in no way related to a desire to protect Americans. It is to control us. They know they cannot publicly state their real intentions.

I have no doubt that behind closed doors there were high fives and glee by many of these “representatives of the people” when they heard of the murders. I also do not doubt that more than a few were disappointed that the number of victims was not greater.

What kind of a Republican appears on a Communist propaganda network to agree with one of their central fascist planks ?

The kind that deserves to be defeated in the next primary.
