Soulless Ted Cruz Runs Away In Fear From The Truth About Gun Violence

Texas Senator Ted Cuz refused to ask reporters tough questions about gun violence in the country, calling them “propagandists” for suggesting mass shootings are a problem in the U.S. Cruz is set to speak at an NRA convention in Houston this weekend and has been bankrolled by the lobbying group for years, raking in hundreds of thousands of dollars in bribes since.

Ted Cruz (R-TX) abruptly walked off from a British journalist’s questions about gun violence in America two days after an elementary school massacre in his state left 19 children and two adults dead. Cruz, who is due to appear at a National Rifle Association convention this weekend, became incensed when pressed on gun laws and why mass shootings “only happen in America.” Cruz was attending a vigil for the victims of the Robb Elementary School shooting when he was grilled by Sky News reporter Mark Stone about overhauling gun laws in the U.S. The senator began by dismissing calls for reform by saying “It’s easy to go to politics.” He added: “The proposals the Democrats have? None of them would have stopped this.” (Cruz had earlier called to “harden schools” by fitting in new bulletproof glass and only having “one door into and out of the school” during a Fox News interview.) But when Stone asked why there was an “American exceptionalism” when it comes to mass shootings, Cruz decided to wrap things up in a hurry. “I’m sorry you think American exceptionalism is awful,” he said, patting the reporter on the chest, adding: “You know what? You’ve got your political agenda, God love you,” before walking away from the TV crew.”

One of the best clearest videos on the issue of gun violence in the US and the reasons politicians won’t help.  He talks about how in the last three there were armed guards in the schools and the shootings still happened.   He talks about how gun control regulations / laws do work and gives examples.   He talks about the Republican Texas politicians.   Hugs

For those hard of hearing some one in the crowd starts saying “GOP – Guns Of the People” and the crowd picks it up.   I had to struggle to understand what Beto was saying but he was saying it was on those in power on the stage, and at this political event where those Republicans are calling for more guns in schools, armed teachers, and chock points of access and exit, calling for making schools into prisons, one guys bellows “I cannot believe you come here to make this political, you sick son of a bitch”!   In other words the guy was saying don’t steal out thunder.   Hugs
