          Horrible butThe problem is not guns, although assault rifle should be banned… It’s our culture. It’s just horrible rap crap saying violence is great. It’s bullying. It’s society. We need to care about our brothers. We need to care for others. We need to get God back in society.

          Maybe we should ban assault weapons if Dems would agree to totally fund the wall. That would be worth considering. We so need the wall!!

          You showed promise of being a #democrat who would step through the lies and bullshit. Not make this about guns. Not use teens to spread your narrative. Nope. Stop it. This was preventable. Too many dropped the ball. Oh if this were about guns. @NancyPelosi rejoices.🔥 #Disgrace

          I can almost bet that both Dem or Republican candidates across the country are funded by gun lobbyists.

          It seems Senator Nelsons comments are of a man who is grieveing. This emotion is understanable. Remember the shooter was checked out when he bought his weapons. Must have passed with satisfaction. There are no rules that work and that includes confiscation.
