What his videos show is Ms. Clinton, obviously sad, acknowledging that the subject of gun regulation is a difficult one, one fraught with political landmines. At the same time, she promises to face the issue because it is so important.
When Jeb Bush is asked about the deaths, he looks flustered, and says he doesn't really know enough about it to comment, then continues to fuss with the people around him, even stopping mid-sentence to smile for a selfie with an admirer.
what eye thynk: Hillary's response doesn't contain much substance, but then I wasn't expecting a policy brief, just some basic human compassion along with an acknowledgement that we have allowed our love of guns to go unregulated for far too long.
As for Jeb not wanting to comment because he doesn't know enough, he hasn't struck me as particularly well informed on anything, so we could say that about every issue on his agenda.
Two people were gunned down on live television. Is he really so inept that he needs to wait for someone to hand him a script to tell him how he feels? What more does he need to know to give voice to some sorrow, some outrage? Instead, he signs autographs, and takes selfies.
Nice to know the "little people" warrant such a small part of your attention that a selfie is more important than two lives lost, Jeb.
Yes he [Jeb] is so inept
ReplyDeletePeople in this country have an obsessive love affair with guns. We are a violent society, and that, combined with the guns does not make for a safe place.. We can be a society of bullies with guns and that makes us very dangerous. We haven't learned and we haven't grown as a society. As advanced as we are, we haven't become cultured. The uncanny ability and preparation for the future that our forefathers showed also created a monster. Its almost like the word gun can't be used unless the words "second amendment rights" are mentioned as well. But not to get off topic, Bush does have a problem with facts, much like Santorum, Cruz, and yes, even Trump. Hillary did mention it, but she knows that she needs to be careful and to tread lightly when talking about guns. Sad.
