Too far? Reminds me of James Huberty that told his wife "I'm going hunting. Hunting for humans". Then proceeded to McDonald's and killed or injured 40 people. Now he's advocating hunting members of his own party. Only a matter of time before an alt-right person thinks it's ok and hunts someone.

Yes hairy D. That guy didn't need a gun either. Maybe a red flag law would've stopped it. Maybe not. And yes, with Greitens past, he doesn't need a gun either. He's only trying to rile up pro NRA for the support he so desperately needs

I see that members of both parties are criticizing this. Keep in mind Greitens has a history of alleged violence to women. His hairdresser and wife. When gun control is such a hot subject right now, why poke the bear with such a tasteless ad?

Using threats of violence like this just to excite the base for an election is dangerous and leads to more shootings. Decent people on both sides of the aisle should condemn this craziness.

Because treasonous Rinos like Roy Blunt agreed to this bipartisan crap as 10 who can keep a filibuster from happening, he needs to be recalled or impeached for not upholding our 2nd Amndmt constitutional rights. Shall not Infringe and red flag laws do. May not stand up to SCOTUS challenges.

Jennifer is suggesting that school security should not be armed with firearms. I guess she thinks security should do hand to gun combat. No wonder democrats thoughts are not respected. She can throw lies and insults around, but gets her feelings hurt so easy. Tsk tsk boo hoo.

Lisa, I am well aware that RINO Blunt is no good. He has been bought and sold by the DNC. Hopefully his replacement will be a real American. I left the Navy after eleven years in 1981 when Carter had high fuel cost, interest rates as high as 18% for home, and runaway inflation. Joe is worse by far.

At the State Fair this year they will be giving away 100 RPG's and 100 Bazooka's with ammo, free via lottery. No ID, ATF Form 4473, Firearms Transaction Record, or Cash required. ROTFLOL. Be sure to show up Jack.

The only people who benefit by trying to arm the entire US population are the gun manufacturers. I`m sure that was their plan all along.

Are these weapons legal? Grenades and rocket launchers, also known as bazookas, are considered "destructive devices" by the National Firearms Act. They are also classified as firearms and are therefore legal with proper registration. A class III tax stamp would be required. Quit spewing lies.

Jennifer M

Quit saying they want to take all your guns. That's completely false. Just trying to make it harder to get. You shouldn't be able to go to a gun show and walk out with a weapon able to mow down 20 people in the blink of an eye. Especially without any kind of background check, red flag, etc....

Something needs to be done about the "gunshow loophole" Anyone can go out the fairgrounds to a gunshow and buy any gun they want with no background check whatsoever

Their choice because you can go get one at the corner pawn like going to a grocery store for a gallon of milk. Plus high capacity. Easy to reload. Hopefully this new bipartisan legislation today is a good beginning.

Where do you draw the line as to what you can own? I'm all for having someone own a pistol and a rifle for hunting. Pass the common sense forms of regulation first. The general public doesn't need guns made for mass slaughter.

A "well regulated Militia" doesn`t men we can have any type of armament that we want. You can`t have a bazooka or an RPG in your garage. (I hope!) Gun rights have to be based on common sense and public safety

Ammendments can be tweaked. You can't yell fire in a crowded theater. Or yell I have a bomb on a plane. Isnt that violating your first ammendment right? Why can't they change the 2nd ammendment saying no assault type weapons? I'm not saying ban all guns. Just put in common sense laws to get them.

@Harry, so if that's the case, all hospital staff, grocery store workers, waiter/waitress, theater staff etc should all be armed then?

There are 20,000 gun laws on the books. The National Rifle Association and other pro-gun groups have often cited the 20,000 gun laws that already exist on the books as reasons why more enforcement, not more legislation, is the answer to curb gun violence.

A solution to guns in schools is MORE guns?? How ignorant can you be? That will only bring about MORE bloodshed in schools. That's absolutely stupid. Why not just hand over guns to the students? More guns is never the right solution. Hate breeds hate. Ignorance breeds Ignorance.

I agree Max, I was in the military that upheld our constitutional rights. Australia is in negotiations to become a Chinese colony instead of UK. It’s true, they have no gun rights at all. Did any Dem see what happened to HK after it was given back to China? They didn’t uphold freedom Noguns=NoRights

I know Dems forgot why we needed a militia in 1776.same reason now. The mass shootings in Chicago every weekend haven’t stopped because of the mayor promoting lawlessness. Dems, StLouis, same stuff, it’s the regular people who need guns. Any attempt to take guns is tyrannical red flag laws=same

I just checked and the pawn shops haven't had any AR-15's since Obama was elected in 2009. ROTFLOL. Are the Dems still repeating the lies, that guns can be bought at gun shows, without an ID, or a background check? The shooting yesterday in Columbia, was not done by a Conservative or an NRA member.

Second Amendment: A well regulated Militia, being necessary to the security of a free State, the right of the people to keep and bear Arms, shall not be infringed. The Constitution is a Legal Document. There is nothing here that can be tweaked. Tweaked is not a legal term?

Jennifer, I would like a ban on Democrats. Why are you so hostile towards the US Constitution? When guns are outlawed, only outlaws will have them. Criminals don't obey the laws now. What makes you think they would obey the laws, if law abiding people were defenseless? Democrats can't reason at all.

Jennifer M

I too would like a ban on assault weapons, AR type, etc.... Why is there so much hostility on here? I've noticed there seems to be an awful lot of insults and derogatory comments on here and coming from the same people. Why can't people voice an opinion here without someone insulting them?

The Republicans just put forward a bill that would immediately provide security to protect children in schools, but Chuck Schumer said no, because he doesn't want children in schools protected. "Senate GOP school safety bill". You Democrats can Google it, if you are computer literate.

Not only has Biden divided our Nation, he has also divided the Democratic Party. That's the only positive thing he has done, in his entire life. The left can't accurately define what an assault weapon is nor what a woman is. But there are 62 other genders in their vocabulary. Follow the science.

That the democrats will stop at nothing to script up a false narrative in order to try to stop Trump from bein eligible to run for President in 2024...the election was stolen from him.

That documentary you speak of is not evidence. If it was, it would be used in a trial. The person that made this is a convicted felon of misuse of campaign funding. Plus he was pardoned by Trump. So obviously this "film" is skewed towards Trump to begin with.

It's been almost 2 years. Nobody has shown proof of election fraud. If there was fraud, especially in states like Penn, Arizona, Georgia, Wisconsin, why hasn't any state AG prosecuted a single person for it? Please Miss Gore, answer with a logical answer and not more conspiracy theory rhetoric
