Dem Senator Drops Jaw-Dropping Claim on Georgia Shooting

Senator Raphael Warnock (R-GA) goes on national television, concedes that there's no specific gun law that could have prevented last week's tragic shooting in Georgia, and then blames firearms anyway. Classic. During an interview on NBC's Meet the Press, Warnock was pressed by Kristen Welker on what law might have actually made a difference in this case. After all, the 14-year-old suspect's father allegedly gifted him the AR-15-style rifle used in the attack as a holiday present. Warnock's response? "Listen, 14-year-olds don't need AR-15s." Well, sure, but then he backpedals, admitting that no single law is going to stop these tragedies. "Listen, 14-year-olds don't need AR-15s, and we need to get these military-style weapons off the streets. Eighty-seven percent of Americans (Democrats and Republicans, according to the Fox News report last year), believe that we ought to have universal background checks and still we can't even get that done in Congress," Warnock said. "Listen, there is no one single law that will stop all of these tragedies. In a sense, I think we have to broaden the scope of the question because after all we have two mass shootings a day in our country, based on the data just last year. And this does not happen everywhere in the world," he added. Let's break this down. The senator spent his airtime blasting "military-style weapons" and lamenting that Congress can't pass universal background checks, even though-brace yourselves-there are already background checks in place! And did anyone else catch his claim that two mass shootings happen every day in America? That's an interesting number, but of course, no mention of how many involve handguns or illegal weapons, or, you know, criminals who don't care about laws in the first place. Warnock's solution? More gun control, because obviously, more regulations for law-abiding citizens will somehow stop criminals from ignoring them. But here's the kicker: Welker repeatedly asked Warnock if Vice President Kamala Harris, who is running for president again, should back her old position on mandatory gun buy-backs. Harris had previously said she supported forcing Americans to turn in their "assault weapons," which would be a direct assault on the Second Amendment. Warnock? Well, he dodged that one like a pro, saying Harris isn't pushing for mandatory buy-backs now, but still supports an assault weapons ban. Sure, let's ban things that millions of responsible gun owners have just because a tiny fraction of people misuse them. Makes perfect sense. And Warnock, in his role as a pastor, talks about his experience with voluntary gun buy-backs. That's cute, but here's the thing: voluntary buy-backs and coercive government confiscation are two wildly different animals. You can say, "Pick this issue or that issue," as Warnock did, but he dances around the core question-should the government force citizens to give up their legally owned firearms? [Warnock]( leans on the so-called "Bipartisan Safer Communities Act" passed two years ago, which he praises as the first gun safety law in 30 years. Sure, it gave states money for "red-flag" laws and imposed extra background check requirements on 18- to 21-year-olds, but did it stop last week's tragedy? Clearly not. And yet, here we are again, with politicians like Warnock calling for more restrictions that punish the law-abiding while doing next to nothing to address the core issues-like broken families, mental health, and a culture that glorifies violence. And yet, we're continuing to fail at securing the border and the violent crimes being committed by illegals.

Deflect from the real issues and push for policies that chip away at the rights of responsible Americans. Warnock may be "heartened" by the legislation passed two years ago, but if we're being honest, that feel-good moment did nothing to prevent this latest tragedy. And the next time he's asked about a mandatory gun buy-back, maybe he'll stop dodging and give us a straight answer. But don't hold your breath. [Shock Report!
