Bill is somewhat on our side, but he is simply ignorant on guns. I actually called in yesterday to his radio show and told him that concealed carry could have maybe prevented this massacre. Pointed out that the old 'blood will run in the streets' argument is bunk because very few people actually get permits to carry. Only a few hundred on a campus of 25k would ever bother to get a permit, even in a pro-gun state like VA.
He cut me off and said oh but you'll have too many accidents etc. BS. We all know that permit holders are by definition responsible people. Again, very few people would bother to hassle with getting a permit. But he wouldn't let me make my point.
He also keeps saying we have lax gun laws in VA. Huh? The ******* at VT passed a STATE and FED background check. We have no waiting period, but what good would a waiting period have done here? None. He bought the gun in March, killed more than a month later.
I think he is essentially pro-gun but being a born and bred New Yorker, he is too ignorant still on the issue. I think he can be educated though. He is getting better.
