        Weird, its as if criminals don't obey the law and buy guns from other criminals.

        Maybe Rebecca thinks all gun dealers, legal or not, are criminals. She may be on to something.

        Restricting gun sales to domestic abusers would have prevented so many killings over the past few years. How can the NRA possibly oppose?

        Assault weapons have already been banned. This rifle shown here is NOT an assault weapon.

        Ah, the good ole- let's keep changing the definition of an assault weapons so we can continue to sell and circulate assault weapons

        What you're implying we ban is scary looking semi automatic rifles.

        Scary looking? I'd say so, over the past 2 months 70+ Americans died from this rifle, same rifle banned in the 90s and unbanned by GOP

        The AR-15 assault rifle. But please argue semantics more so you can keep dodging the real issues

        2nd Amendment was written so every man could have a gun to be army if needed. We have an army today, don’t need citizens to have guns. #fact

        It was written because we had just armed ourselves to fight a tyranical government. The founding fathers knew better than anyone that...

        In his interview with CBS This Morning, Gov Abbot disclosed that Kelly attempted to get and was denied a Gun Permit in the State of Texas.

        Ok so he can have the gun but not the permit? That is absurd @GovAbbott!

        Makes the history of the gun and how Kelly acquired it a central part of the discussion.

        As I understand it, he bought gun in 2016 at a San Antonio sporting goods store. A violent past either didn’t matter or didn’t flag him.
