Donald Trump vows to veto any new gun regulations

[SecularMotion]

Donald Trump pledged to veto any additional gun regulations should he be elected president, telling voters on Monday that the perpetrators of mass shootings “always find a way to get something, whether it’s a gun or otherwise”.

“We have tremendous regulations already, a lot of people don’t even realize,” the Republican presidential candidate told a New Hampshire town hall hosted by NBC’s Today show. “People aren’t abiding by them, government does a terrible job of enforcing them, but we already have tremendous regulations.”

Trump added that easy access to guns was a problem that could be solved by law enforcement, saying: “You’ve got to enforce what we’ve got right now, and there’re plenty right now.”

He then contended that mental health issues were the core issue of the United States’ continuing run of mass shootings, of which there have been at least 1,000 since a gunman killed 26 people, mostly children, in Sandy Hook, Connecticut, in December 2012. After several recent shootings, including the killing of nine people in Roseburg, Oregon, at the beginning of this month, gun control has re-emerged as a major issue in presidential campaign politics for the first time in 15 years, when the Columbine high school massacre haunted the 2000 election.

3. He will lock up the Repub nomination quickly with more statements like that.

The RWNJs love their guns due to that ridiculous fear of a government takeover or whatever it is they think the government will do which they need to prevent.

4. There's your boy, DU Gun Enthusiasts. Come and claim him.

As usual, a Republican is toting your political agenda. He's just a little crazier than usual.

5. He says whatever pleases the current crowd.

Put some Sandy Hook parents in front of him and he'll be all over gun control. The man hasn't got an original thought. He just parrots whatever the others say. Ben Carson says he'll do away with Medicare so Trump hopped right on the bandwagon and said the same thing. He's a loudmouth fool and the idiots on the right love him.
