    Trump says he's a "big fan of the NRA" but suggests raising the gun-buying age for rifles from 18 to 21. NRA has previously pushed back against raising the age limit. http://cbsn.ws/2FfgReK pic.twitter.com/pn5zRwpYeZ

        It’s painful watching theses people tip toe around the problem of civilians owning military grade weapons. It’s disgraceful and disgusting.

        Yes it is. I wish the discussion would suddenly become all inclusive -- mass & nonmass shootings, gang neighborhoods, unlocked-and-loaded guns in the home, suicide-by-gun. Attached is a link to state laws on unlocked guns & more. http://lawcenter.giffords.org/gun-laws/policy-areas/child-consumer-safety/child-access-prevention/#state …pic.twitter.com/Yxptu1cPT7

        @realDonaldTrump is unhinged. They will probably lower hand gun purchases to 19 and raise assault rifles to 21🤔

        That's his hot take huh? Raise the age to 21. Brilliant.

        LOL, that's what the left has been pushing for. Now that Trump is open to it, they're against it.

        Best increase that selective service age to 21 too. We sure as hell don’t want a bunch of teenagers around military weapons!

        This makes sense, so I assume what will happen is the Age for a Handgun will go from 21 to 18. Because his problem is with the disparity in ages not the possession of weapons.

        Raising the age limit isn't going to work. We send 18 year olds to fight in Iraq and Afghanistan using the most sophisticated weaponry, but they can't be trusted with a simple semi-auto rifle at home? Give me a break.

        It's not about age... grown ppl hey guns sy gun shows with no background checks. .. they are just as ignorant about using guns as a child. .. extensive training should be a must by gun users
