The DNC Pushing Gun Control During the Country's Unrest Misses the Bullseye

Night three of the Democratic National Convention focused on a few issues outside of the headline speeches from former President Barack Obama and vice presidential nominee Kamala Harris. At the start of the night, gun control was pushed as a way to fix the country's growing violence in its various cities.

"Tonight we’re going to talk about where we are and where we’re going on so many issues important to our future. 90% of Americans support common-sense gun laws because we need to do more to address the epidemic of gun violence. Let’s start there," moderator and actress Kerry Washington said before a video montage was played.

The video featured speeches from survivors of shootings and gun control activists, such as Emma Gonzalez and former Rep. Gabby Giffords (D-AZ):

"They say that tougher gun laws do not decrease gun violence. We call B.S.They say a good guy with a gun stops a bad guy with a gun, we call B.S.They say guns are just tools like knives. We call B.S. This is no laws could have been able to prevent the hundreds of senseless tragedies thatoccurred. We call B.S. That us kids don’t know what we’re talking about,we’re too young to understand how the government works. We call B.S.," Emma Gonzalez.
