The left is using the Vegas mass shooting to demand gun control — all kinds of gun control from banning silencers to most rifles. At the same time some congressmen won’t honor a moment of silence for victims, the leftist doctors are once again claiming guns are a health hazard.
Democrat Representative Seth Moulton won’t join a moment of silence because it is, in his mind, “an excuse for inaction”. The representative from Massachusettsย will boycott a moment of silence in honor of the victims.
He thinks because he’s an Iraqi war veteran he has the right to take our guns.
He’s not alone.ย Rep. Katherine Clark, another Massachusetts Democrat, will join Moulton in protesting the moment of silence, according to the Boston Herald.
We didn’t have even an hour without the left demanding gun control with Hillary Clinton one of the first to roll it out in a tweet.
As after #Orlando, I will NOT be joining my colleagues in a moment of silence on the House Floor that just becomes an excuse for inaction.

Now is not a moment for silence; it’s a time for action.

His issue is so-called assault rifles which he wants banned. He was joined today by the leftist doctors.
The notoriously left-wing American College of Physicians issued a statement Monday labeling mass shootings a โserious public health issueโ and calling for a ban on automatic and semiautomatic weapons in the wake of the mass shooting in Las Vegas.
โWe must acknowledge that lack of a U.S. policy to address gun violence is the reason we have much higher rates of injuries and deaths from firearms violence than other countries,โ the group said in a statement. Specifically, we call for a ban on the sale and ownership of automatic and semiautomatic weapons.
Yes, we are sure they do.
They want more government-funded leftist studies so they can prove it’s a health hazard. Meanwhile the private sector funds plenty of those.
In addition, that great sage Ariana Grande tweeted, “My heart is breaking for Las Vegas. We need love, unity, peace, gun control & for people to look at this & call this what it is = terrorism.”
That will do it – love and gun control.
The killer also had explosives. What ever will we do about those?
