VA Gov McCauliffe Touts Advocacy For Backround Checks During Interview On Shooting
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.”

It was a classic exchange; kudos to the reporter for asking.

It was very similar to Odumbo's saying Cambridge police "acted stupidly" then saying he doesn't yet have all the facts.

Liberalism is a disease.

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

Not as long as the anti-gun zealots are seeking to exploit every tragedy, no.

Down the memory hole, to be remembered by the leftist media never again.

Gov. McAwful: “ I’m a gun owner, I’m a hunter. But you know what? I went through background checks myself to get it. “

This shows how ineffective background checks can be.

I would say that there are not enough guns in the hands of law abiding citizens.

The proper question is, should the citizens fear the criminals or should the criminals fear the citizens. I postulate that in a proper working society, it is the criminal who should fear the citizen.

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


Minor little edit there for you FRiend ;)

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

Well perhaps the families left behind can take comfort in Governor McAwful climbing up on top of the bodies of their loved ones to push that never ending liberal agenda to outlaw and confiscate guns.

McAwful is one of THE most good-for-nothing sacks o' sh*t to ever come down the Clinton Crime Expressway.

It went to the same place the SEC investigation of McAwful’s GreenTech car company went.

To the extent that Trump helped his fellow liberal McAwful get elected, you are correct.

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

The previous Republican Governor McDonnell is a convicted felon. His conviction was upheld by an appeal court in July 2015. On August 24, 2015 Chief Justice John Roberts of the US Supreme Court issued a stay of McDonnell’s prison term while he appeals to the US Supreme Court.

It doesn’t appear Trump contributed to McDonnell’s campaign. Trump has contributed to the campaigns of many Republicans including Allen West, McCain-Palin, Peter King, Lindsay Graham, Thom Tillis, John Cornyn, Louie Gohmert, Tim Scott, Mark Foley, George Allen, Bush-Cheney, Rudy Guliani, Clay Shaw, Tom Kean, as well as a number of donations to the RNC. Trump has also contributed money to a number of Democrats. Looking at a list of his political contributions since 1999 (almost $900,000 total) it appears Trump gave 62% of his political contributions to Republicans and 38% to Democrats.
