Yeah - people who can’t fly should definitely be trusted with a gun too…

Rubio is concerned about safety and security – the safety and security of his NRA rating.

Rubio shills for gun manufacturers.
We wouldn’t want the NRA’s war daddies to lose 700K really good customers. Think how many thousand rounds of armor piercing ammo would go unsold; the high capacity mags collecting dust on the shelves; AR-15s and AK-47s crying out for the loving caress of cleaning rags; and Kevlar and camo slowly falling victim to moths.

He probably wants people to be allowed to carry guns on to planes, too. After all, the best cure for a hijacker with a gun is a good guy with a gun, and what’s a little decompression among friends?

Is the paucity of guns in this nation worth a conversation?

Rubio suggested on Sunday’s episode of “State Of The Union” that the no-fly list is impeding too many law-abiding citizens from purchasing a gun.
Because if there’s something everyone knows, its that there aren’t enough guns in American hands in this country as it stands right now.
Fun fact: There are more guns in America than there are people in the country. Rrubio is frankly just another NRA Toady…A dime a dozen among most insensitive, non-thinking GOPers. If the restrictions prevented those on the No-fly list from getting food, shelter and clothing…he might have a serious point worth making…but since it doesn’t impact basic needs he should just STFU and quit making an ass of himself.

If you are the type that prays please pray for deliverance from this jaw dropping stupidity.
Really Marco ? If I show up at one of your rallies with a loaded AR15 you’ll just invite me in?

I wonder if he’s concerned with all the people who are falsely put on lists that say they can’t vote in Florida?

I wasn’t sure what was happening when I flipped through the channels and saw Rubio yammering away on FOX. Was he offering a rebuttal to the president’s oval office speech?! Is that how it was presented? Is that appropriate?! Did anyone rebut Kennedy’s speech to the nation during the Cuban Missile Crisis?!
And MSNBC with their focus group of half a dozen people to share their views on what the president said. Like it was in the wake of a debate or a campaign appearance. WTF is going on here?!

We wouldn’t want to risk inconveniencing a non-terrorist while we prevent terrorists from getting guns.
What the fuck is wrong with these assholes?

Sure, I mean, why would we want to at least check to see if the people that at least one governmental agency says is a threat shouldn’t be armed?
This coming from a guy who thinks we should focus on limiting access to bombs…

Seven hundred thousand people? Well, hell, that’s some real goddamned market share to be carved up among the gun manufacturers who donate to your campaign through the NRA, right, you murdering capitalist prick?

Various lists are fine to stip people of the ability to vote, travel by flight and all other things but not get guns. Apparently that is the line here. They would happily use the list to discriminate against people but that is it.
Really, people can get off the no-fly list if their is an error. What reason do most people own guns? Hobby. If they have to wait a little longer than so be it.

The 2nd amendment was written to serve the country during a particular period in our history. We could not afford the expense of a standing army so our citizenry was charged with forming militias to stave off possible foreign attackers. Had the founding fathers even an inkling of what unfettered gun ownership would lead to in this country, they certainly would have, at the very least, clarified the murky intent of the amendment rather than leaving it open to interpretation. If the amendment were in fact intended to convey two intents, both a “well regulated Militia, being necessary to the security of a free State,” AND " the right of the people to keep and bear Arms, shall not be infringed," wouldn’t they have at least used two sentences?

I read the headline as, “Should Be Used As Tool To Impede 700K” and I thought, it isn’t already? Wow, is Marco making sense?
Then I re-read the headline and knew that all was right in the Republican Bizzaro World again.
