Via Bearing Arms Does Sen. Murphy even know what gun laws we have…?
Since he’s someone who keeps trying to push laws, many might believe he’d at least be conversant on what laws already exist, right?
Well, it sounds like he doesn’t.
On Wednesday’s Amanpour & Co. show, interviewer Walter Isaacson gave Senator Chris Murphy (D-Conn.) a forum to make a misleading push for gun control as the two discussed the recent 10-year anniversary of the Sandy Hook school massacre.
Appearing on the show which is shown on both PBS and CNN International, Senator Murphy recalled that he became an activist on gun control after the event, leading Isaacson to follow up: “If firearms is the leading cause of death among young kids, what could be done next? What would you like to see happen after this reform of the past year?”
Even though federal law requires anyone who sells weapons for profit to do a background check on the buyer, the liberal Senator claimed some states do not have background checks, which he blamed for fueling the illegal gun market:
So what we have in this country is a massive black market in firearms, and that is how firearms often end up in the hands of young kids. So background checks is the quickest way to stop that black market because how the black market starts is a criminal trafficker buying a whole bunch of weapons in a state where there’s no background checks.
BALD-FACED LIE! And Senator Murphy knows it! But, once more the left as no use for truth. They care about power, over you! Murphy knows background checks are federally mandated, yet, he chooses to lie.
