Sen. Murphy: Congress ‘Endorsing Mass Murders’ by Not Passing Gun Control Laws

‘Without Congress acting here, we are going to see more and more of these mass slaughters’

RUSH TRANSCRIPT:
ROBERTS: “You heard about Hillary Clinton’s plan today with comprehensive federal background legislation, tightening gun shows and internet sales, repeals a law of crime victimless from suing gun manufacturers, revokes the licenses of back actor dealers so we have been asking the viewers whether they think the plan or one like it could work. i want your take on that and whether you believe as she calls for executive actions right now and were to be president, do you think that president Obama could do more? They say they’ve exhausted the possible executive actions without the help of congress. MURPHY: “I think Secretary Clinton today outlined some additional executive actions the Obama administration can take a look at bringing dealers across the country outside of the requirement to do background checks into that requirement.” 
ROBERTS: “It would basically call them businesses so they would have t guidelines for the sales.” 
MURPHY: “Yeah. It would be an acknowledgment of people at the gun shows on a weekly or a weekend basis and are acting much more like full-time than part time gun dealers and people selling on the internet doing enough volume to be doing background checks, as well. There’s room with respect to executive action and I think the president said that during his statement last week that he’s going to be looking at additional ways to work without Congress and hitting a ceiling some point and if we want meaningful change, we have to do something. I’ve said for a long time I think Congress is effectively quietly endorsing these mass murders because people who are having their minds unhinged, note that there is no one here in the elected legislative branch of Congress getting together to do something about it in a practical way. So I think without Congress acting here, we are going to see more and more of these mass slaughters, and that’s an abomination.”
