Sunny Hostin: 'I feel like a hostage' to assault rifle owners

Assault rifles have been banned since 1987 and there can't be that many class-3 collectors out there to justify feeling like a hostage.

No she's not, she is a very intelligent woman who I respect very much.

I disagree with her on this matter but I still respect her right to her opinion.

She is the most level headed of all the cast on the view.

I like Megan as well but she has issues with controlling her temper and at times comes off a bit whiney thinking she is the only conservative female on TV and everyone is against her...

She's a clown that you happen to like.

Why not? Why have traffic lights and catch people for running them when we already have laws for involuntary manslaughter if you run over pedestrians? That doesn’t make sense.

You're not allowed to use guns on a public road way at all. They are far more restricted than vehicles in that regard.

Laws governing the road way are there because it is a communal place where you share space with other drivers. If there was a place like this for guns it would likely exist for them. At this point they aren't allowed to be fired in road ways at all.


Your analogy is poor.

A gun in a public space is no different than a car in a public space. There should only be laws when you hurt people. Everything else is redundant and unnecessary.

so it gun is a 5000-lb piece of machinery that you sit inside and operate around other people with guns doing the same thing?

No traffic control laws control traffic the name explains what they do. This is a phenomenon that exists with vehicles but not with guns.

You're not allowed at all to operate your firearm on public roads so the laws regarding guns are much stricter.
 
Unless you have a federal license .. there aren't many civilians that own assault weapons.

No, they are different tools for different purposes. What they share in common is that they are both potentially dangerous tools which can hurt people. So why not wait until they do? We already have laws against that.

Laws about cars cover everything from what kind of cars are street legal and allowed on the street, to who can drive them (no blind people, people with seizures, Alzheimer’s, etc...), to how they should be operated, etc, etc... it’s crazy. It’s all part of those liberals’ plan to start you on a slippery slope of tyrannical laws until they achieve their ultimate dream of a Marxist communist utopia. It really doesn’t have to be that hard. Just wait until people get hurt, then arrest them. Why does it have to be so complicated?

Because they hate freedom and they hate America, that’s why.

You're referring to laws about the use of vehicles on public streets and highways.

Guess what. There are lots of laws about the use of guns. Unless you can show where someone has argued they should be allowed to use a gun in any manner they please, such as shooting out streetlights or hunting squirrels in the city park; you're just flailing away at a false analogy.

We already do. There are laws against shooting people.

There are already strict traffic regulations against guns. You are not to use them at all on public roadways.

The laws governing traffic are much more strict on firearms. You're not allowed to operate them in the roadway at all.

We don't treat them like cars because the roadway is built to operate cars in.

if you're asking for more regulation on firearms in the roadway what more can there be?

Sunny Hostin: ‘I feel like a hostage’ to assault rifle owners

“The View” co-host Sunny Hostin said she feels “like a hostage” to Americans who own assault rifles while arguing resistance to reform measures from gun rights activists is …
thehill.com thehill.com

She is 100% right. the majority of these assault-rifle owners are not putting "country first." They are putting their own perverted self-interest ahead of what is best for the country.

Freedom is not the ability to own these killing weapons. That is not what freedom is all about.

who cares what an ignorant moron thinks. she's too stupid or dishonest to even understand what an assault rifle is. When someone is that misinformed, no honest person can possibly take them seriously
