Fox News host Laura Ingraham drop her show last Nox talking about the horrific shot at a gamy schoolhouse in Parkland , Florida that left17 people dead . But she devote six full minutes of her program to just how “ safe ” the AR-15 assault rifle is . Seriously .
Ingraham , complete with an Ash Wednesday cross on her brow , talked with her Edgar Guest Aaron Cohen about how guns are “ very dangerous in the hand of the wrong person , ” but said that guns like the AR-15 are really very “ safe . ”
“ You have a less likeliness of sporadic fire or rack up ingenuous people if you ’re using it for habitation defense because it shoots really straight , ” Cohen said of the AR-15 , laud the features of the arm .
“ So it ’s actually a very secure weapon , it ’s easier to shoot than a handgun , ” Cohen continued .
The AR-15 is the same rifle that was used in yesterday ’s shooting in Florida , not to mention the shootings in Aurora , Colorado in 2012 ( 12 all in , 70 offend ) , Newtown , Connecticut in 2012 ( 20 children between the ages of 6 and 7 - years - honest-to-god dead , 6 adults bushed ) , San Bernardino , California in 2015 ( 14 drained , 22 severely wounded ) , Sutherland Springs , Texas ( 26 dead , 20 wound ) and Las Vegas ( 58 idle , 851 wound ) .
“ It did n’t take him long to go flop to gun for hire ascendence , ” Ingraham said after air a magazine of Democratic Senator Chris Murphy . Murphy correctly target out on the US Senate floor yesterday that these shootings plainly do n’t bechance in countries where guns are tightly regulated .
But Ingraham would have you believe that any restriction on the sale of the AR-15 in America would be silly , because the gun is so tremendous .
“ If you ’re not train , and if you have a condemnable inclination — a trigger-happy disposal — it can be turn into a kill machine . But [ Senator ] Chris Murphy wants to make it all about the artillery , ” Ingraham said .
To say that the AR-15 can “ be deform into ” a killing machine is wholly artful . The AR-15 is a killing auto . That ’s literally what it is designed and manufacture to do , kill multitude . But she and her Edgar Albert Guest restrain insist during the nauseating section that it ’s at long last a perfectly safe thing for Americans to keep in their dwelling .
“ There is a mental health epidemic here , which is being discombobulate for a gun job , ” Cohen said on Fox News with a straight fount .
“ Where are the parent ? ” Cohen asked , presumably about the parents of the alleged gunman Nikolas Cruz .

If it feel like we ’ve been here all before , that ’s because we have . It ’s hard not to palpate hopeless as this happens over and over again . And it ’s firmly not to get angry at masses like Ingraham who go on television receiver to assure you that it ’s not about the gunman , it ’s about this abstract whim of “ mental health . ”
The sleep of the world has plenty of the great unwashed with genial wellness problem . But no other body politic watches their children regularly slaughtered by guns on tv set the way that America does .
