As a Bernie supporter, I kind of agree. Not that I think he deserves some of the vitriol being thrown his way currently, but, I had a more positive view of Bernie and what he stands for a month ago. He's not going to win this so he has nothing to gain at this point, especially since he's playing to win instead of playing to make an impression.

Which is illegal, so doesn't apply to what I said, at all
Just Sanders getting bodied.
But in that case the liquor store owner didn't do everything by the book and legally. Bad analogy.

Agreed. Ridiculous logic behind that pointed question.

NY's a closed primary, though. Very different dynamics.

I think Bernie's argument is that going after the sellers themselves shouldn't be the thing to do, but to deal with all of the loopholes and shady shit that allows the transferring of guns. It's kind of hard to apologize to someone who wants to go after head honchos if he feels it's not the head honchos that should be hunted in the case of gun distribution.
That said, this is the same group that has special protections, and I would imagine that you can ideally mix Hillary's "go after them fully" for the protections and Bernie's "attack the loopholes" arguments, but they're fighting one another over that. It comes off as shitflinging where they both are leaving holes in their arguments.

Answer me this:
Why should gun manufacturers get special protection under the law that only vaccines get?
If you can't answer, kindly back off with this infuriating and misguided defense of the PLCAA, thanks.
It's the quintessential example of money in Politics buying special favors. And you guys are buying into it hook, line, and sinker because of a shitty "common sense" reasoning.

He could have responded better, but it's a really shitty question. people don't like bernie sometimes because of a lack of nuance in his viewpoints but when he actually has an answer to a question people that isn't black or white he's terrible and should apologise to the sandy hook parents. it's really poor stuff.
But bernie there are more black people in prision in your state than walking around in it. Bernie what about your house?

WEED FOR EVERYONE! I know that's not what he's advocating, but Reddit wants to hear it!
I agree 100%. But his answer was still fucking awful.
That's true. It depends on how many new voters show up to the polls. If it's an large crowd, that tends to benefit Sanders. If the crowds are down it benefits Clinton.
The gun was locked up if I remember correctly? Both he and his mother used to go shooting together, he had access. I think it's a bit of a stretch to say it was stolen, when the mother shared it with him, and gave him access.
He's a US senator. He doesn't have the ability to change state level laws.
