Jindal: In Louisiana, Gun Control Means ‘Hitting Your Target’

"Now I will be honest with you, I did not appreciate that as a child. Everybody I knew was born in America. So what does it really mean to give thanks and be grateful for this great country? Now I think I understand better as I try to teach my own children. 

But I want to describe to you two threats, two threats  that threaten the ability of our children to say that same prayer every night as they go to bed, and one day our grandchildren. The first is an external threat, the second is an internal threat. The external threat. We as a nation have got to take seriously the threat of radical Islamic terrorism. (Applause)

For some reason we have a president who doesn't even like to use those words to describe the enemy that we face. Unfortunately, this is not just a threat in Syria and Iraq. It is not even just a threat in Paris or Australia anymore. The recent events in Garland, Texas show us this threat is in our country. 

I don't know about you, but I was thankful that those two terrorists were sent to their afterlife. By the way, maybe there is a lesson in there. Maybe Texas and Louisiana, and South Carolina, maybe those aren't the best places. I do not know about you, but in our states, when we think of gun control we think that means hitting the target you are aiming at. (Applause)
