President Trump reacted to the Las Vegas attack by saying, “We’ll be talking about gun laws as time goes by.” According to the Washington Times, Trump praised the police response to the attack, saying on Tuesday the Las Vegas Metropolitan Police did an “incredible job.” He added, “How quickly the police department was able to get in was really very much of a miracle. They’ve done an amazing job.”

But after praising the police, Trump made clear a discussion on gun laws is coming:

I’m okay with banning bump stocks. I’d be disappointed at the useless gesture, but it’s not a fatal error. Any restrictions on magazines or on semi-auto, and it’s over for President Trump . . . and for America.

Trump’s statement is very neutral, but as usual a lot of people will assume the worst.

Yes, gun laws. National preemption, CCW valid in all states just like a driver’s license, and DC, as a federal district, shall respect CCW and laws of all states. Anything else, combined with wobbly response on illegal aliens and amnesty, will mean Trump loses his base and is one term only.

That is why, if he moves the wrong way on this, he may as well stop. Tread very careful here DJT.

“But after praising the police, Trump made clear a discussion on gun laws is coming:” ********************************* What’s to discuss????????????????????????? NO IFS ANDS NOR BUTS in the RIGHT TO BEAR ARMS!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! (and that doesn’t mean the arms w/fingers @ the end!) ++++++++++++++++++++++++++++ IT MEANS WHAT IT SEZ! NO IFS ANDS NOR BUTS! +++++ ********************

I would hope someone in the White House will remind Trump of "A well regulated Militia, being necessary to the security of a free State, the right of the people to keep and bear Arms, shall not be infringed.".

Dem Sen Markey: The Writers of the 2nd Amendment Didn’t Intend for People to ‘Purchase Guns Indiscriminately’

If Trump is about to show us how he intends to "do deals with Nan and Schumkie" on "common sense" gun control, then he loses my support immediately!! If Trump is really saying - "Hey Dems STFU, this gun discussion is for later after the mourning and investigation", then I am all in with him.

No, gun owning citizens, gun owning voters. NRA is one of many voices for us.

If Trump thinks the Bill of Rights is going to be revisited, he will see that America itself will be revisited.

If he wants that, well, we shall revisit it.

I think President Trump understands his base pretty well on this issue.

Mr. President, you have only one option:

You can start talking about REPEALING gun laws. Anything else is treason.

Choose wisely.

How about this: Take away all the guns from the criminals FIRST, and then since the criminals don’t have any guns we can talk about the rest.

At most he might support banning bump fire stocks if both houses of congress get behind it.

And that would be a betrayal of We the People, for whom he works. What do you say to an employee who betrays you?

I’m not familiar with the quote you posted, but I fill it in as follows:

Errors ceasing to be dangerous when it is permitted freely to CONDEMN them.

What word did TJ use?

Same here! If he compromises at all on this issue, I’ll walk and he’s on his own for 2020
