Like other 'good' Democrats, Sen. Chris Murphy was quick to exploit the shooting at UNLV to push for ... wait for it ... you know it's coming ... more gun control. Democrats never ever let a crisis go to waste.
Watch this:
Today I asked my colleagues to pass my universal firearms background checks legislation. It's supported by 90% of Americans and would save thousands of lives.

Republicans blocked it.
Three hours later, another mass shooting in UNLV.

This carnage is a choice.
Yes, by mentally-ill criminals who don't give a single damn about any of his 'legislation' or pandering to the gun control lobby. Republicans aren't 'choosing' carnage, that's just hate-filled horse manure. Fine, if he wants to play that game then every time a Democrat blocks a pro-life bill or votes 'present' on a bill calling out antisemitism they are choosing carnage.
And c'mon, 90% of Americans? What's your source, Murphy?
What do you think your bill would have done to prevent the UNLV shooting?

Here's a hint: nothing.
We have background checks.

How do you plan to make criminals obey them?https://t.co/iiKrCbyo1G
There are literally tens of thousands of laws on the books already ... which new law does Murphy think criminals will obey?
Many mass shooters commit crimes with legally owned firearms.
— Mark Pukita (@mpukita) December 7, 2023
Many mass shooters commit crimes with stolen firearms.
How will your bill do anything but make it harder to own firearms legally AND build the foundation for gun registry which will enable gin confiscation?

His bill wouldn't do anything BUT let him pretend he did something to end gun violence, and then when it doesn't magically end because criminals and insane people DON'T OBEY THE LAW he'll be back up there pushing for another bill and claiming Republicans are ok with death. This is about politics, nothing more.
Ban gun free zones

Interesting how the locations of these mass shootings almost always turn out to be gun-free zones.
90%? 😂😂 If you are going to try and gaslight people at least make it believable

Did this shooting have anything to do with a background check not being performed?
— Rose of Sharon Mayer (@RozeRage) December 7, 2023
Since you have no way of knowing that, why are you making this claim?
Because he's a pandering toolbag, that's why.
100% of Republican voters want you to close the border.

Couldn't even wait for the bodies to cool.
