At Princeton Ted was known to be kind of a pussy. You would have thought a guy from Texas would know how to camp and be outdoors. This guy is a liar and a fraud.
What’s the problem, big tough Ted? Aren’t you the good guy with a gun, and isn’t that all it takes to solve all gun problems?
“Tyler said Cruz had not taken issue with current system of background checks, but specifically opposed the 2013 bill, which would have imposed them on sales between private individuals.”
But it is precisely the unregulated sales from straw purchasers who buy guns legally and who sell to friends, relatives and strangers who are criminals who can’t buy legally that is a major part of the guns that are traced to crime scenes. The gun industry accounts for 6 billion $ annually in revenue per business.time.com. The secondary market is nearly 40% of this. See:

Hence the secondary market is a billions of dollars cash cow the NRA leadership and munitions industry want to protect at all costs, even if it means lives lost. Not to regulate this market is perhaps the greatest domestic dereliction of congressional duty of our time.
That was my thought as well. Can we make an exception to the background check for this one event?
Slice 'n dice I’m guessing.
OK, how about the slap chop guy?
He fancies himself to be a “Royal,” and entitled to exclusion from ordinary social courtesies.
Then we all win!
Canada already has a Constitutional Queen. Guess they can use one of the Drama variety.
I believe that Cruz is unbalanced, mentally.
Really.
Ted is just the instigator. Guess who that makes the sucker?
I’m waiting for the other shoe to drop. The one about no live ammunition being allowed, and all guns having the firing pins removed.
Second Prize: Two Days Shooting with Ted Cruz!
Privacy Violation!
MY FREEEEEEEEEEEEDUMBBBBBBBBBZZZZZZZZZZ!!!
A background check…and Cruz reading Green Eggs and Ham to you.
He would be the perfect shooting partner for Cheney.
But not child molesters or rapists. That’s a normal day in the country for Republicans.
He has some clear personality defects
narcissism
lack of empathy
self centeredness
to name a few.
Hell, if Cheney goes too, I’ll chip in to buy the booze.
Where’s P.E.T.A. when they’re really needed?
Why did I have the same thought?
