Extremist MP Lauren Bobert (R-Colo.) Told Fox News that gun control was not the answer to mass shootings because “when 9/11 happened, we didn’t ban planes.”
“We watched the booth,” said Bobert, a lawmaker who last year took a Christmas photo of three small children holding assault rifles.
“I want to protect our schools,” he said. “I want to protect our children and I want teachers to be able to protect themselves and their students. And did you know? “We can achieve this without trying to disarm law-abiding citizens.”
Other countries have shown that restrictions on gun control laws and bans on firearms and semi-automatic weapons are highly effective in preventing mass shootings.
Bobert’s comment came after the deadliest school shooting in Texas history. An 18-year-old man fired a gun with a legal purchase at an elementary school, killing 19 children and two teachers.
It happened less than 10 days after another 18 -year -old killed 10 people at a supermarket in Buffalo, New York, as well as a legally purchased gun.
Fighting massacres Updated pressure Republicans could pass significant gun reform legislation, including expanding background checks on arms purchases by voting on bills. While this idea is attracting widespread support from American voters, it has been blocked for years by elected Republicans, many of whom are receiving overwhelming election support from gun lobbyists.
All flights were suspended a few days later, on 14 September. As air travel resumed, airport security was greatly improved and many new screening measures were implemented, as opposed to the inspections required by gun control lawyers.
I think the GED does not require studying analogues like the SAT.

Yes, we did!
We closed the airspace for 2 days. We did this: we banned all knives, sidewalk checks, the use of Air Marshals and only passengers were fined outside the airport’s metal detectors. The flight is never the same.
We can respond immediately if our leaders in DC are guided! https://t.co/joxWrP3mJF– Kerry Donovan (@KerryDonovanCO) May 27, 2022
When 9/11 happened, we literally created a new closet section dedicated to packing shoes and seizing any bottle of liquid larger than 8 ounces. https://t.co/1NTTFRxCZf

First of all, to fly an airplane you need to have a pilot’s license. Second, after 9/11, the TSA will not allow anyone to board a plane like a nail clipper. They will also force you to take off your shoes/belt/jacket and do a body x-ray to get to the terminal. https://t.co/JEVSuG8sTG

The ID card is double checked before passing the TSA = universal background check
Remove all electronics, do an invasive x-ray, my locks are always falling off = background check
I can’t ride a weapon = Automatic Weapons Ban https://t.co/cYqWkmIdPq

Many things are clearly wrong with this way of thinking, but hm … 9/11 style attacks always? https://t.co/w2rpxyq9y1
