CNN Anchor Clashes With GOP Rep. on Gun Control: ‘He Shot Them, He Didn’t Stab Them…You & I Will Have This Exact Same Conversation at the Next Terrible Tragedy’

CNN Anchor Soledad OBrien Clashes With Republican Congresswoman Mary Bono Mack on Gun Control After Newtown Connecticut School Shooting

CNN

CNN’s Soledad O’Brien on Saturday had a fiery gun control debate with Rep. Mary Bono Mack (R-Calif.) following the Connecticut elementary school massacre, charging that unless something is done, the two of them will be having “this exact same conversation at the next terrible tragedy.”

“There’s always a tragedy, we all run out and we cover it and people watch at home and they’re brokenhearted and then we all go on the next day or three weeks later as if, ‘Well, you know that’s done,’” O’Brien leveled. “I guarantee you the next school shooting we’ll be talking about gun control again and I would put money on it that between now and that next shooting, no one’s going to do anything…what has to change so people can’t get access to semi-automatic weapons and go into a school and shoot up a bunch of kids?”

Bono Mack said very little is known yet about the shooter and “we’re making a lot of assumptions that we really shouldn’t make yet.”

“We know the weapons he used,” O’Brien responded. “He had three weapons at least on him…he shot and killed people. He shot them, he didn’t stab them, he didn’t do a pipe bomb, he shot them. And I think this conversation at some point has to go back to, what is the normal amount of guns that people can own and how they’re registered and how they’re tracked, otherwise you and I will have this exact same conversation at the next terrible tragedy, we will and I think you know we will, right?

Bono Mack, who lost her re-election bid in November, said she prays that won’t be the case, but again cautioned that there are still many unanswered questions, including whether the shooter was using drugs or had sought mental health counseling.

“This guy seriously snapped. And the guns didn’t make him snap, he snapped and then sought out the guns,” Bono Mack said. “Whether they were his mother’s guns or whether they were somebody else’s, he was going to snap and do something horrific and heinous, unfortunately.”

“But we know he used guns and that’s how he killed 26 people, and then took his mother’s life and then took his own life. It was guns,” O’Brien said. “I think people are really sick of all the conversation around it and then we never actually do anything. Maybe in this nation people are just tired of that at some point.”

      Encinom, name one of these evil bastards that belonged to the NRA in these shootings. I’m not defending the NRA per say because they will support a liberal as much as a conservative as long as the voting record of the past has shown to support the 2nd amendment, nevermind the rest of the constitution. That being said, I’m a firm believer in the 2nd amendment!

Now smart guy, you want to refute that?Waco Texas, 1991 Luby’s cafetera,George Hennard murdered 23 people, and wounding 20 more,at that time, Texas had no conceal carry. Fast foward to today, Texas has a conceal carry law,and except for the Ft. Hood killings, there has not been another mass killing in Texas since they allowed conceal carry.Now which works better , limited gun laws such as Texas has, or strict gun laws such as Ill.DC, NY, and Cali have? And remember moron, Chicago is the murder cap. of the US,and they have some of the strctest gun laws.Dumbass……

      If stairs were banned, no one would fall down them. If cars were banned, no one would cause a car accident. If stoves were banned, no one would burn themselves. If water was banned, no one would drown. If food was banned, no one would get obese. If electricity was banned, no one would electrocute themselves. If going out in public were banned, there would be no epidemics. If guns and hammers and knives and ropes and poisonous plants and golf clubs and fireplace pokers and every other miscellaneous tool used to kill someone in English murder mysteries were banned, there would be no violence from objects.

    Why is she not railing against lax mental health issues?
    The only reason they will repeat the argument is she will continue to bring up irrational arguments when there is a tragedy.

    what about the 22 kiddos stabbed in China within the two days preceding Sandy Hook? Why is she not championing Knife control?

    simple, her knee jerk liberal reaction is to blame the gun… anything BUT the person responsible. Becuase that would mean looking for personal responsibility in other things… like, say, the way in which her reporting is generated in a biased manner… as in the way she ignores facts that disagree wtih her point of view.

    You could ban all guns tommorrow and bad people will still get guns and still shoot people. Why? because they’re bad people and bad people don’t follow the law. I don ‘t understand why that is so hard to understand.
    Also, isn’t funny that liberals preach that drug prohibition leads to more crime and more violence but, yet, they support gun prohibition? Gun prohibition leads to more violence because only criminals will have guns. Again, why is that so hard to understand?

      SteamTrain – i doubt democrats would have allowed him to get life.They don’t believe in the death penalty or prison.

      Mitchell Scott Johnson (born August 11, 1984) and Andrew Douglas Golden (born May 25, 1986) are former middle school students who on March 24, 1998 committed a massacre at Westside Middle School in unincorporated Craighead County, Arkansas.
      A total of five people, four female students and a teacher, were killed. Ten people, nine students and one teacher, were injured.

      Johnson was released on August 11, 2005, on his 21st birthday due to federal gun crimes. Originally he was to only be held until he turned 18 years old. He spent less than 2 years in prison for each murder that he committed.

      Golden was released on May 25, 2007, also his 21st birthday.Golden’s precise whereabouts were unknown until he applied for a concealed weapon permit in Arkansas on October 7, 2008, under the name he now uses, Drew Douglas Grant. His application was denied by the Arkansas State Police, who noted that Golden had lied on the application about his previous residences and claimed it would be illegal for Golden to own or possess a firearm. The assumed name that Golden was using had been unknown up until this point due to a gag order, but police were able to tie Andrew Golden to Grant through fingerprint records during the background check for the permit.

    This is what drives me nuts, an elementary school is deemed a weapons free zone in most states, if not all. Even if you have a C&C permit, if you have business I side the school, you need to at minimum lock up your sidearm in the trunk of the car….more accurately, leave it at home. Incidents such as today’s shooting just illustrates how ridiculous that aspect of gun control really is. That policy certainly did not deter this shooter.

    If you lefties achieved your perceived utopian state of absolute gun ban, the problem would still exist because only the criminals, police, and military would have guns. Do you really think that a criminally deranged violent criminal will turn in his gun? Are you that naive to say that a criminally deranged violent criminal will not be able to get a gun on the black market? Would it have made you feel better if this guy had used an explosive instead?

    Now, imagine if every teacher and staff member had a weapon, even a small 22 caliber handgun. Maybe the number of casualties wouldn’t have been so high. Can’t depend upon the cops to arrive, assess, and act in time.

    To me, this situation illustrates the need to permit the citizenry to be able arm themselves; whether concealed or open carry, you should be able to do that, even on

    Who the Hell is a talking-head to have an argument with anyone? It is not their pulpit, ‘it’ is our airwaves. Do not be their intellectual client, turn them off – with prejudice.

      You just can’s see her obama-prompter. I got to sit at that famous ESPN main desk – that has the teleprompter built into the surface, so the talking heads look like they’re reading notes.

    IF you are going to blame guns, then you have to count all of the lives that have been saved
    because someone had a gun.
    The only edge I’ll give the gun-control folks is that this mother should NEVER had had guns at home, readily available, with a person on prescribed drugs, known autism.
    IF there had been a security guard (armed) at the school behind a bullet proof shield who could see
    this evil b. coming, he could have hit a button which would drop iron ‘cage’ on him and cornered him immediately. The Glass should not have been able to shatter with guns shot at it.
    BUT MAINLY: WE have no right to demand GOD’S Protection when we won’t even allow His name to be spoken. We have free will to decide are we, are we not going to follow GOD. The time is coming much closer that this choice is going to determine whether we go forward with GOD or not. I don’t think we can deny that.

      Gary Kleck says that there are 2,500,000 defensive gun uses per year and the Doombergs (MAIG) and the lamestream media are squatting and grunting to discredit that number.

    This boilerplate talking point is now officially discredited. Sorry Progressives, you’re out of ammo before your first volley.

      We both know their ultimate goal is an outright ban on all firearms and I’d like to be able to say that will never happen but with the warped mentality of a goodly portion of our society,you never know. I still maintain that every ‘gun law’ passed since the second amendment is unconstitutional. Try explaining that to your typical lib/progressive though and you’ll get some hysterical response.

      PROGRESSIVESLAYER, We do know that the complete ban of all guns to the public has worked very well in the past. For Hitler, Stalin, Mao, Castro, and so many other despot dictators. Makes their job so much easier, doesn’t it?

    EXCUSE me, you arrogant b****, but here are the facts about gun control:
    1. The guns do not load themselves.
    2. The guns do not drive themselves or walk themselves.
    3. The guns do not fire themselves.
    4. The guns cannot fire unless a HUMAN BEING arranges that somehow.

    Folks on the left are so brain dead, so soul dead. Geesh!!!

    As to her argument about knives…

      Facts are these things did not start getting this bad until Gun control advocates installed laws through congress; it seems that the more gun control laws they put in place the more dangerous it gets. But the facts do not matter to them there stupidity blinds them to the facts, only ones that will follow the laws are the ones that would not do this horrible crime. Did the laws that are already there stop him from doing it? NO!, but there again I digress.

      Hi Kick…….This gun control nonsense is tiring. The libs will never get it, never believe that the moral decay, the systematic removal of God in America, drugs (both legal and illegal), violent movies, violent video games and the wanton murder of children via abortion thereby cheapening life, etc, are the root cause of what happened yesterday.
      The only thing that will satisfy these puppets is gun control.

      The culture of death is the cause of this tragedy. Liberal Hollywood, the entertainment industry and the anti-christian values they promote created that monster!

      Ban all guns, the young, godless, bestial, degenerates the left culture has engendered, will use chainsaws, bombs, fire, poison, etc.to kill innocent people.

      KICK: Someone needs to tell her about the reoccurring incidents in China where wacko men have killed school children with KNIVES ! This is so blatantly transparent: the radicals want to end gun ownership . This has been their agenda for years. Never waste a crisis. Too bad these predominately atheistic Lefty radicals refuse to recognize that their dependence on Rules For Radicals rather than those ” traditional” moral codes is the very cause of these spiritually lost , angry killers. They are ANGRY. Just like the OWS. The union mobs. The ACORN bull horned folks. The MIC Checks. ( How is that divisive, class/ race baiting working out for you , Mr. President ?? )
