All he has to say is that we have enough laws already, and there is no need for any new ones.
Cue the hand wringers and never Trump folks crying President Trump will enact gun control and/or take away our guns BS.
Well, I’m for free speech.
There’s nothing wrong and everything right about talking about gun laws and anything else.
No need for hysterics.
President Trump is, once again, not allowing the left and their narrative to control him.
How about abolishing gun-free zones? The day Congress makes a law to take away our guns is the day that open rebellion will begin.
"To jaw-jaw is always better than to war-war." Winston Churchill
We can talk all we want. There’s no law that could have stopped this maniac.
Oh No , It’s Trump’s “Read My Lips” . He already said he would never go after gun rights
How about tax breaks for legal gun purchases and gun training to every eligible American citizen?
Talk about them: There won’t be any changes except going across state lines without penalty.
DO NOT TOUCH THE 2ND.
Trump is a tough negotiator, and to him, "talk" does not equal :="capitulate".
My guess is that he will have folks like John Lott and reps from several gun groups on his side of the table.
My guess is that he's thinking,
When we talk about gun laws, I think Trump means we need to have a reciprocal concealed carry in all 50 states so people can protect themselves.
President Trump's remark was to defang the Progressive's hysteria knee-jerk reaction to this act of evil....NO Hillary...we do not need more gun laws...nothing would have stopped this madman....laws haven't stopped you Hillary....
It's not the guns it's the democrats behind the guns...Check out the prison population - over 90% democrats... Trump can't fall for the liberal BS... he's too smart for that.
I’m not worried at all about Trump’s position on the second amendment.
I think he intends to let the horror of this tragedy fade and then start a discussion focused on how more guns laws would not prevent this, and other shootings but allowing more law abiding citizens to carry firearms would help.
Start warming up a new candidate in the bullpen. Who do we got that respects the Constitution?
This doesn’t bother me at all. Classic Trump response. Of course it’s going to get “talked about”. That happens every time there is a shooting.
He can ‘talk’ about them.
In my view, he should investigate how this alleged shooter Paddock, who had no background in heavy assault weapons, who had no registered ownership of full auto assault weapons, how he came by these weapons. So the President can and should investigate how this situation came to be.
If, for example, he finds the weapons were smuggled into the country, or he finds that they were acquired and illegally modified by a leftist group such as antifa, or he finds that Soros is connected via funding of these groups, etc. then he should ban such groups and arrest Soros or Soros related connected persons.
I will wait until there is an actual bill signed into law before I give up on President Trump
The President is playing the Grand Game of politics.
Probably means enforcement of the ones on the books.
