We find some people so dangerous that we won't let them on a plane, but currently they can buy a gun. That makes no sense. How can you tell a person: No, you can't have that ticket, but would you like an automatic weapon? Would you like a machine gun? That makes no sense. If our law enforcement specialists, those that deal with this day in and day out, say to us this person should not get on a plane, how can we have laws right now that allow that person, then, to go right down to the store and get an automatic weapon and all the ammunition that he wants? That makes no sense. In fact, the American people know that that makes no sense. We need to change the law. We don't need a vacation. That is why we should be here right now debating these bills and doing something for the safety of our people. ____________________
