Sen. Murphy: Republicans are just gun-control Darwinists at this point

Uhm… nailed it?

(VIDEO-AT-LINK)

I guess I appreciate the honesty of the Republican caucus. They’ve just made it clear that they are just kind of gun-control Darwinists at this point. They just think that we should give a whole bunch of guns to the good guys and to the bad guys and let them shoot it out, and hope that the good guys win. That’s their agenda, and a lot of that was made plain today.

Well, that was a feisty enough bit of demagoguery to rival some of President Obama‘s preferred tactics. I’m pretty sure that the the good guys and bad guys just “shooting it out” and cavalierly hoping that the good guys win isn’t what Republicans have in mind in their gun-rights agenda, but in fact want to make sure the good guys are armed as a robust means of deterrence for the bad guys who are armed anyway — which on net balance would lead to less violence, not more.....

Hey Senator Murphy!

In 2010, roughly 48,000 felons and fugitives attempted to illegally purchase firearms. Out of those 48,000, the Obama Justice Department prosecuted only 44.

Why not enforce our current gun laws?

Only 0bama gives guns to bad guys - and only those based south of the border.

Doesn’t Murphy have a point? Republicans believe that gun control will not keep guns out of the hands of criminals, so they want law-abiding citizens to have guns (if they choose), and they want criminals to know that some law-abiding citizens are armed.

So...Murphy wants to disarm the good guys, so the bad guys will always win? Have I got his logic right?

His side has the criminals and the political class, so yes, he wants the bad guys to win.

No, Senator... Please pat attention to what we are saying! Bad guys are criminals, go get them. Good guys are to be left alone to pursue happiness without government intervention. Get it? (Are all Senators this dumb?)

Welcome to the ranks of the low information voter Sen. Murphy. You sure have proven you don’t get it.

It appears Sen. Murphy is stuck on stupid. That malfunction is demonstrated by 3/4 of this Congress.

Wow...that guy is a moron...

That isn't about moving up the biological tree to a higher level of gun control, it's about protecting the 2nd amendment ...
