  1. BUILD MORE PRISONS and don't DE-FUND THE POLICE. That is my answer to Bowman.

  2. was he trying to say arming the teachers was the answer ??? wow …i don't have any answer for that …because it's so stupid ….

  3. guns are worst at cops hands

  4. Why in the world would anyone try to talk to him ?

  5. Amazing MAGA here are whining because this man is yelling about mass shooting being ignored by THEIR representatives. But if it was abortions they’d be cheering!!!Before birth they matter , after birth guns matter more ! Smh

  6. Emotions without reason.

  7. What some call passion, others call performance. Bowman is an actor playing a role. He doesn't have the ability to engage in a civil debate without the hysterics, so shouting is his default method. I would say he really embarrassed himself, but his constituents don't have the same standards; so they see it as strength.

  8. “MORE GUNS MORE DEATH!” “shouldn’t we consider-“
    “MORE GUNS MORE DEATH!” “can we at least agree-“
    “MORE GUNS MORE DEATH!”
    “Oh my goodness you’re right! more guns more death! I get it now that you’ve shouted and repeated it over and over again! Of course we shouldn’t have a rational discussion about better security at schools.. how silly of me. Color me persuaded.”

  9. If this upsets you, then you are also upset with gang violence in Chicago, LA, St. Louise, Detroit, Minneapolis, St.Paul, Baltimore, DC, Atlanta, NYC, etc. Also upset about the 2000 abortions a day. Still happening even with overturn. So spare me your outrage. It’s not guns it the people. If the state condones killing babies then they have nothing to say about these shootings. Stop murdering period! People are not benevolent, altruistic gods. Stop being delusional.

  10. "People talk loud when they want to sound smart, right?"

    Bowman: "CORRECT!"

  11. Thomas Massie was the only one NOT AFRAID to stand firm against a emotionally unstable fool yelling. And, when Massie tried to answer, he tried to tell him down more until he knew his yelling wasn’t working and walked away.. Massie stood firm.

  12. Yes more death. Death of the bad guy. You will let teacher teach your child, but you are afraid to let the teacher have a gun 😳

  13. Finally a Democrat over talking the republican!! More of it PLEASE!

  14. The silent majority for free will speaks: 757 likes; 1.5K dislikes.

  15. the girl that did the shooting was a total leftist

  16. after Stalin took the gun from the russian people he killed 20 million them

  17. Yelling at and insulting people doesn’t prove anything. It certainly won’t persuade them or entice them to listen to what your saying.

    I’ve never been screamed at and insulted and afterwards thought “wow, that guy really knows what he’s talking about, maybe he’s right!”

  18. the truth is dont let people like bowman get guns

  19. Bowman is a coward. Why doesn't he address the rampant black on black crime that is the number one killer for young black men?

  20. THIS IS AN ISURECTION

  21. Axe everybody. This clown was a teacher? I hope it was not english he taught. Maybe ebonics.

  22. Shouting over people is not a way to debate them… no law would have prevented this… all your laws do is make it harder for victims to defend themselves…

  23. If "more guns lead to more death" why does he support our government giving guns to Ukraine? Is he not protected by guns? "Guns for me, but not for thee"… Dude has zero intelligence. It's so simple. We protect everything of value with security and firearms, but the left doesn't want our children protected. It's that simple. Criminals break laws. That's what they do. You can make all the laws you want about guns but they will make zero difference. How's that law about not killing people working out? It's not about laws, it's about meeting evil with an equal or superior level of violence. Ain't all rainbows and unicorns in this world. Putting your head in the sand about the benefits of righteous violence causes the actions of evil to continue

  24. When listening to this debate and Massie's 'expertise' let's keep in mind he is in fact protected by armed bodyguards 24/7. And when they ban all the guns, HE will still have that protection.

  25. The DNC and RNC will never fix the problems they created. An armed society is a polite society.

  26. TRULY responsible people would have had public protections in place first BEFORE obsessing over a culture(guns) they have no idea on how to control!👁️👁️👁️

  27. I'm from the UK and have noticed that the last 4 mass shootings I've seen reported on have been done by trans or non binary people so is it the guns or the mental health that is the problem?
    Also chicago has some of the strictest gun laws don't they? Yet every day I see people in Chicago are killed in shootings.

  28. NO ONE IS ABOVE THE LAW!!! Unless you’re a war criminal serving the military industrial complex.
