Jeb: ‘The First Impulse of Hillary and Obama’ in Response to Terror ‘Is to Have Gun Control’
STEPHANOPOULOS: "How about this issue of the no-fly list? You believe that people on the no-fly list should be able to buy guys?"
BUSH: "I mean, Ted Kennedy and Stephen Hayes (ph) the journalist and Cat Stevens, I mean, this is not a list that you can be certain of. The first impulse of Hillary Clinton and Barack Obama is to have gun control. But the first impulse in my mind is let’s have a strategy to take out ISIS there so we don’t have to deal with it here."
STEPHANOPOULOS: "That is — the Democratic leader, Harry Reid, pointed out this week that the FBI terrorist suspects now who pledge allegiance to ISIS can still buy guns in America. Is that OK with you?"
BUSH: "I don’t think it is — it’s appropriate if they haven’t, you know, we’re tracking them and if the FBI knows that someone’s in our country and they’re tracking them, they shouldn’t be able to get guns for sure. But the no-fly list is a much broader list. It’s not an accurate list to be able to use for restricting gun rights for law-abiding citizens."
STEPHANOPOULOS: "But so you’re saying that if the list were more refined then you would —"
BUSH: "Yes. Yes. I mean, if you have — if you’re tracking someone who you believe may be a terrorist, of course they shouldn’t get guns. The FBI has that capability right now."
STEPHANOPOULOS: "But right now, according to the law, someone could pledge allegiance to ISIS and that wouldn’t necessarily be disqualifying."
BUSH: "It should be. And I think it is. I think if the FBI is aware of — if they’re tracking someone, they have the ability to look and see and then notified when someone tries to purchase a gun."
