You know Bernie really sounds like someone defending Wall St. when he's talking about guns

The guy said he doesn't want to hear about background checks and laws?
So if laws are off the table along with improving background check systems, what else is there?

Lolol wtf.
Here in Puerto Rico, we have the strictest gun laws in the United States.
VICE has a good documentary on it.
Should start working any day now, right guys

Bernie just fucked up

It's a complex question.
How is that elitist?
If Hillary Clinton can stand there quietly and wait for him to finish speaking, Bernie Sanders can grow up and stop gesturing madly like a damn 12 year old.
Oh, the poor little gun manufacturers, please let the government help them those nasty lawsuits.
Why not? We all have been saying this or that can't be said or done in an election.
Someone gotta try for once.
He said mental health laws, not "laws", since that dude passed all those according to his question.

Do gun manufacturers even have any input on who it's sold to?
Like, where they involved in whomever bought one at Wal-Mart?

I don't understand, why would the gun makers be at fault? I hadn't heard of this before. take some personal fucking responsibility, jesus. I think as a country we certainly have too easy access to guns, but that's for our government to step up and put the RIGHT laws into effect. but to shift the blame from loonies shooting people up to the people making the guns isnt right

Holding the manufacturer responsible for how their product is used, isn't the answer.

Even if a store follows the law and intensive background checks happen, everything comes up clear, and the store legally sells the gun.
Then later the owner of the gun later shoots up a place.
Should the gun shop be sued?
Edit: And Bernie is bringing this up now lol.
It's a constitutional right. You won't get a congress to a agree to it.
Manufacturers shouldn't be held liable if they don't do anything wrong. If they do something wrong, they should be held responsible. How hard is that to understand?

That's not the extent of it.
Bernie also voted for guns on Amtrak. And against the Brady Bill five times.

Bernie you keep on talking over her, stop going "omg can I finish"
The idea might be to just hurt and scare them, because you can't legislate stricter gun laws.

Why should shops or manufacturers be libel for legally purchased guns?
Bernie's right.
Bernie's right.

Bernie's an asshole.
Someone should try to push a Constitutional Amendment to ban ALL guns? Yeah, that is pure fantasy la la land. We can't even get tougher regulations passed.

That was a damn hard question to answer, both sides did alright. I agree with Bernie on it mostly, but it's a really complex thing to answer on the spot.

No, they do not and they are not involved in the transaction.

Outlawing guns and shutting down gun manaufactors while jailing the people who run those companies is the answer.
Which was my initial point. DNC and RNC control the primary process. It's very hard to get your message out currently if you can't be a part of either side's primary debates. And sure you could insert yourself into the general if you have enough money and/or support, but that's an even tougher battle to wage. And Sanders doesn't have a built-in personal cash flow like Perot did or Trump does.
The people making guns are one of the most powerful political forces in the country and are one of the main reasons why it's so easy to get a gun.

Sanders just literally said the NRA no guns in America straw man.....
Honestly they're both sick of this shit. No one has anything new to learn. Gotta be exhausting.

That wasn't the question though. It was specifically if manufactures should be held responsible for how individuals use their products.

You give little credit to the Chinese people and their efforts and policies. Free trade agreements aren't as clean as you portrait them to be. The people of China did a great job to improve their standard of living. You talking about trade as the factor requires a pretty significant evidence which I haven't particular seen.

Asking to be given time to speak during a formal debate instead of being interrupted and impulsively doing the finger thing when he disagrees with something (everyone has ticks like these) is driving this debate into GOP name calling dick-measuring territory in your opinion. He's attacking poor Hillary by... not doing much outside the norm at all really.
and they say Bernie fans are the ones with persecution complexes...
