He simply repeated what the media was saying at the time. He's hardly the only one to do that. Hell, even the most devoted follower of the Gun Control forum, TurtleDude, was posting it was an active shooter situation.
So, tell me...did TurtleDude run his mouth off like a ****king moron to push his bull**** anti gun agenda? Is that your argument? How about Kal'Stang, when he posted multiple people were shot? Was he running his mouth off like a ****ing moron to push his bull**** anti gun agenda?
I'll bet dollars to donuts you don't get back to me with an honest answer to my questions.
[h=1]Tim Kaine on Gun Control: “I Can’t Think of an Issue I’d Rather be Aligned With Than This”[/h] When presented the opportunity to vote to protect the rights of law-abiding
gun owners,
Kaine declined to do so.
In May 2000, Tim Kaine, then-mayor of Richmond, Va., used more than $6,000 in public funds to charter eight buses. The buses were used to transport city residents from Richmond to the anti-gun, and inaccurately named, Million Mom March in Washington, D.C.
I support a comprehensive approach to curb gun violence which includes expanding mental health services, background record checks prior to gun purchases and
responsible limits on combat-style weapons and high-capacity magazines.
I’ve been disappointed to see the Senate block commonsense legislation to address these issues but will continue to advocate for ways to make our country safer.
Following a public outcry over the use of public funds for political purposes, including criticism from Richmond City Council members, Kaine was forced to seek private funds to reimburse the city. Despite the disapproval of citizens and his fellow public officials, Kaine was reluctant to admit wrongdoing, with the Richmond Times-Dispatch noting, “Kaine defended the subsidy on the ground that Richmond always has supported stricter gun laws.” At the time, the Times-Dispatch also reported that in regard to gun control, Kaine said, “I can’t think of an issue I’d rather be aligned with than this.”
This gross misuse of taxpayer dollars to advocate for extreme gun controls is indicative of Kaine’s 20 year public career, during which he has ceaselessly attacked the rights of law-abiding gun owners. In choosing Kaine as her running mate, Hillary Clinton has chosen one of the rare politicians that comes close to matching her zeal for restricting gun rights.

I supported the Manchin-Toomey bill, which would have required background checks on all commercial sales of guns, including sales at gun shows and internet sales, as well as strengthened the existing instant check system by encouraging states to put all their available records into the National Instant Criminal Background Check System (NICS). In addition,
I cosponsored legislation to close a loophole that allows gun sales to proceed if a background check is not completed after 72 hours, even if the gun buyer is not legally allowed to purchase a gun.
I also authored the Responsible Transfer of Firearms Act,which would hold people responsible if they sell or transfer a firearm to someone who is barred by federal law from possessing firearms. Ultimately, efforts to reduce gun violence must focus on multiple solutions, but passage of these bills would be an important step in the right direction.
There is no such thing as a reasonable gun control law. If there was like all gun control laws it would not work
If he supports the second amendment how come he cannot see the words shall not be infringed?
How many donuts would that be?
