'A special place in Hell': Dems and gun reformers push back at GOP rhetoric after North Texas shooting
Following this weekend's mall shooting in suburban Dallas that left eight people dead, Texas' GOP politicians offered the familiar bromides. In addition to calls for thoughts and prayers, Gov. Greg Abbott and Texas Republicans repeated the mantra that mental health, not guns, are to blame. During a Fox News appearance, the governor even pushed back when the interviewer brought up a poll showing that Americans favor background checks and a higher minimum age to buy firearms.
