Breitbart.com ^ | August 26, 2015 | Ian Hanchett

Posted on 08/26/2015 8:15:33 AM PDT by Biggirl

Virginia Governor Terry McAuliffe (D) stated, “there are too many guns in the hands of people who should not have guns. This is why I’ve long advocated for background checks” in an interview on the shooting of a reporter and a cameraman on Washington DC’s WTOP radio, portions of which were broadcast on Wednesday’s “CNN Newsroom.”

I saw that. When a reporter asked him if he knew if the shooter had gone through all this and had a permit and he said he didn't know, that he "didn't know anything".

Typical leftist idiot.

Terry McAwful is the poster child for “not knowing anything”.

He is the governor of VA and Donald Trump contributed to his campaign.

Anyone else frustrated, that this just happened a few hours ago, and people are talking about gun control and background checks??? Is there any remorse for the victims, or do we politicize everything nowadays???

Can we mourn the victims, and have the gun control debate some other day????

This guy is a ‘chum’ to the Clinton Crime Family....he doesn’t like guns, is this a way to get guns out of his State?

I feel really bad for these two people and the families and friends they leave behind...RIP...

As usual, this will probably not have kept the shooter from getting a gun because he had no previous record.

Governor McAwful doesn’t care about the shootings or the victims or their families. Being a good “progressive”, he cares what mileage he can get from it. Nothing else.

Never let a tragedy go by without grabbing guns.

Never let a shooting go by without dancing on the grave of the victims...or, better yet, don't even let the bodies cool off before trying to make political hay out of the story.

Oh, and of course, don't have a clue what you're talking about - typical ill-informed emoting by a brainless lieberal. It is ALL about feelings, and nothing whatsoever about a logical, fact-based attempt to solve a problem.

The media pushes for gun control.

Like a background check would have deterred someone from committing murder.

It wouldn’t have stopped someone without a prior criminal record!

Terry McAwful is stuck on stupid.
