Guys, if you haven't been watching the CNN Town Hall, it's worth it to checkout the highlights. It's a a CNN orchestrated puppet show to be sure, as the 7000 member audience is mostly anti-gun and I'm pretty sure they handpicked most the questions. But it's a good view to get a pulse of where the antigun side is at.
The two Florida US Senators were there including their H o R rep. The two Dems responded about like what you would expect. I was pretty impressed, however, with the way Marco Rubio handled himself. He honestly seemed pretty presidential throughout most of it, however, the bad news here is that he is now contemplating changing his stance on magazine capacities. He didn't say he has changed, only that he was open to reexamining his position. So we can't know for sure which way he'll go with that. He also said he's willing to up the age from 18 to 21 for rifles.
The Sheriff of Broward County was also on towards the end along with Dana Loesch from the NRA. After watching it, I'm convinced he's part of the problem. He did everything he could to distance himself and duck responsibility for the 39 visits from law enforcement that went nowhere. He seemed like a perfect douche to be honest.
Dana did...ok. She took a beating but it's to be expected in that atmosphere. Kudos to her for showing up but I'm not sure it was very productive. Nobody wanted to hear from the NRA, just condemn them.
