Father of Newtown Victim Heckled

[Bfgrn]

We have a cancer in this country, and they are armed.

Neil Heslin, father of 6-year-old Newtown shooting victim Jesse Lewis, was heckled at the Connecticut State Legislature as he testified Tuesday in hearings on the aftermath of the Newtown massacre. Gun enthusiasts shouted “the Second Amendment!” several times while Heslin, holding a picture of his son, wondered why Bushmaster assault-style weapons such as the one shooter Adam Lanza used should be sold in the state. “There are a lot of things that should be changed to prevent what happened,” Heslin said. Around 1,500 people—both pro-gun and anti, who all had to pass through metal detectors—attended the hearings at the Connecticut capitol under heightened security. Hundreds testified, with one lawyer insisting “the local and national debate has been co-opted by the anti-gun agenda.”

You have no soul.

You are morally bankrupt, all you care about are your fucking guns.

Asshole

Expressing emotions and appealing to them are two different things. Nobody here is going to change their behavior to avoid having a problem with you because nobody cares. If you have a problem with Zap, take it up with him like a man instead of begging Rana to intervene on your behalf.

[Cancel 2016.2]

So, he asked a question and they answered. Wow, that is truly shameful.

 

[Cancel 2018. 3]

"The Second Amendment!" was shouted a couple of times by as many as a dozen gun enthusiasts in the meeting room as Neil Heslin, holding a photo of his slain 6-year-old son, Jesse Lewis, asked why Bushmaster assault-style weapons are allowed to be sold in the state.

[SmarterthanYou]
