He's so fake. You can see the fake sincerity on his face, and as soon as he's challenged, the demon behind the mask comes out.

Can’t decide which is more apropos:

“To know Ted Cruz is to dislike Ted Cruz”

Or

“Why do people instantaneously dislike Ted Cruz? Because it saves time.”

Then there’s the take of the inimitable Al Franken —

Here’s the thing you have to understand about Ted Cruz. I like Ted Cruz more than most of my other colleagues like Ted Cruz. And I hate Ted Cruz.

Sorry, this is applicable when rooms full of 9 and 10 yr olds are getting slaughtered. You don’t just stand outside and wait.

It's inapplicable to any active shooter post Columbine. The thinking used to be that you want to calm and negotiate with a gunman to save lives, but now it's go in fast and search out the shooter before they can kill more people. These cops decided to wait

I'm not going to sit in judgement of cops who made choices under difficult circumstances. We'd all like to think that we would have done better when faced with the prospect of dying kids, but half of DC has had the luxury of working of been sitting at home because of COVID. Most of us are hardly the warriors for the public good (with the exception of frontline workers).

A sniper fired more than 200 high velocity rounds at my kid’s school in DC using four fully automatic assault rifles and a high capacity drum magazine. Four people were shot. This happened last month.

And that is the fault of Congress (specifically Republicans) for not having the guts and brains to put in place common sense measures that would reauire background checks and ban high capacity magazines. Because all of the legitimate gun owners out there know you don’t need the standard number of rounds to shoot a deer.

Do you think for a second that the person shooting up the PP's school legally purchased that gun? No.

Ugh. I'm so tired of the "people will get them illegally anyway!" crap. These are always the same people who think outlawing abortions will make all abortions go away.

It’s almost incomprehensible that anyone not acting in bad faith would think that an AR15 wasn’t purchased legally when used for the purpose of committing mass murder. Particularly in circumstances where there are multiple weapons.

If nothing comes back from NCIS the purchaser simply gets to walk out with the gun and unlimited ammo in a few minutes in most states.

Then there’s the related issue of ensuring that background checks can be completed by the FBI within three days if a sale is flagged and all relevant mental health and criminal information is accessible.

Tons can be done, starting with outlawing assault rifles and high capacity clips, and also raising the minimum purchase age across the board.

Im sorry, but these are matters of post-Heller and MacDonald jurisprudence under the Second Amendment. The Supreme Court will not outlaw assault rifles. The Supreme Court will not raise the minimum age of purchase to 21. The Fourth Citcuit already has invalidated a prohibition against handgun sales to anyone under 21. They will have a harder time with restrictions on high capacity magazines. Bans for untraceable ghost guns are already being challenged as was the banning of bump stocks after Las Vegas.

Unrestricted gun rights is something that will keep Clarence Thomas snd other Federalist Society fanatics on the bench for years to come.
