California State Legislator Claims Gun Lobby And Pro-Gun Lawmakers Were Accomplices In Vegas Shooting

By Tom Knighton

To find anti-gun lawmakers in California isn’t very surprising. To find a Democrat making hay out of a tragedy like the Las Vegas shooting isn’t either, apparently. So there’s no real surprise that California Assembly Speaker Anthony Rendon did as well.

What is surprising is that the man had the audacity to claim anyone who has ever opposed gun control was, in essence, an accomplice to the murder.

As of right now, we know very little about the shooter’s weapons. We knew even less yesterday when Rendon wrote this. In other words, he’s ready to claim blood is on our hands simply because the shooter was a shooter and not, say, a bomber.

Rendon is hardly the only one. Countless other so-called “tolerant” souls are blaming the National Rifle Association for the shooting, even before we know a thing about how the killer got his guns or even precisely what the guns were. With no information other than it was a shooting, they’re ready to lynch the NRA and everyone who supports them.

And no, that’s not hyperbole.
