Sen. Rick Scott: Banning “Assault Weapons” Is A “Non-Starter”


56 views

Republican Senator of Florida Rick Scott has spoken out against the assault weapons ban being toyed with and advocated for by Democrats like Beto O’Rourke.

Following the Texas mass drive-by shootings on Saturday, Scott spoke out about the real cause of the spike of violence in America.

He essentially told interviewers that it is the people, not the guns that are pulling the trigger in mass shootings,

“We’ve got to figure out how we get guns away from mentally ill people who want to harm others or themselves.”

When asked, 

“An assault weapons ban is a nonstarter in this Congress?”

Scott replied,

“No, I’m focused on the people that have problems.”
