Senator Bernie Sanders said on Meet the Press that he wants to make gun laws “more enforceable” and “stronger” in the wake of the recent shooting in Louisiana. Hillary Clinton’s biggest threat to the Democratic nomination also said he wants to ban all firearms that aren’t used for hunting purposes.
“I believe that we need to make certain kinds of guns used to kill people exclusively, not for hunting should not be allowed for sale in the United States of America. We have huge loopholes at gun shows that should be eliminated.”

Sanders effectively said that he would ban many rifles, shotguns, and almost all handguns. Sanders had previously described himself as a socialist but given that his home state of Vermont is fiercely respectful of Second Amendment rights, he had been labeled a “gun nut” by some on the left.
The NRA actually helped get Sanders elected to Congress in 1990.
Now that he is seeking the national support of Democrats, he has to amend his prior support of the Second Amendment. And he pandered to the extreme left on Meet the Press.

Bernie Sanders is a “turncoat” that grin on his face tells it all. What a loser.
A lot of fine people on Vermont but I guess not too many of them vote or Sanders would have been gone long ago.
Does anyone really pay attention to Bernie Sanders’ ? I feel sorry for this delusional person
The real reason Democrats and progressives wants your Guns, is they know they are so evil that they believe you will use it on them
More people die in auto accidents than do because of guns. Should we ban automobiles next? What about tobacco and alcohol? If you disarm the honest citizens the criminals with guns will have a field day!
I shook hands with Bernie in Houston last week. I think he would be a fine President. The NRA has the GOPer wannabees marching in brainwashed lockstep. If they will not discuss the issue, they will not get elected. I believe that every paranoid schizophrenic should be given a semi-automatic 12 gauge.
This guy is an idiot and firm believer of socialism. He loves Odumbo’s policies and has not intention of changing anything and now he wants my guns. Let’s start with your security teams guns because you aren’t getting mine.
Bernie will not be getting my vote and hopefully not many others
