Guns

The latest mass shooting at the mall in Allen, Texas, left even some gun owners demanding action.

MSNBC's Nicolle Wallace began her show on Monday by attacking the inaction of Texas Republican lawmakers who continue to fight back against any possible gun safety laws, despite voters in the state approving of them overwhelmingly.

A father whose daughter was gunned down in the attack on Marjory Stoneman Douglas High School in Parkland, Florida is facing criminal charges related to a property dispute with neighbors in Oregon.

According to the Miami Herald, Andrew Scott Pollack, 57, won a civil suit case with the neighbors, but now faces criminal charges that include "four counts of coercion, stalking and second-degree disorderly conduct and three counts of menacing."

The Republican U.S. Congressman from Texas who received massive criticism for suggesting God was responsible for this weekend's mass shooting at a shopping mall that left eight people including a five-year old dead is now saying he wants more guns at the Allen Premium Outlets.

Freshman Republican Rep. Keith Self, 70, whose congressional district includes Allen, Texas, served in both the Army Special Forces and Army Rangers. A Christian nationalist, far-right extremist, and 2020 presidential election denier, Self was endorsed by twice-impeached and criminally-indicted ex-president Donald Trump, along with his disgraced ex-National Security Advisor Mike Flynn, also a far-right Christian nationalist, and a QAnon supporter.

Texas Gov. Greg Abbott (R) quickly blamed mental health after a gunman killed eight at a Texas mall Saturday, but he downplayed the suspect's ties to white supremacy.

During an appearance on MSNBC's "Morning Joe" conservative commentator and Bulwark founder Charlie Sykes expressed dismay over the weekend mass shooting in Allen Texas and suggested there is something deeply wrong with the United States.

After a visibly angry co-panelist Jonathan Lemire listed off the body counts of multiple mass shootings in Texas since 2015, the equally disturbed Sykes offered up a bitter take on "American exceptionalism," after host Joe Scarborough interjected, "Charlie, just in case people are going, yeah, okay, so these people got shot, Texas is a big state, let's underline it again: the number one killer of children in America, and I guarantee you in the state of Texas, is guns."

A very emotional Joe Scarborough dropped the hammer on Texas Gov. Greg Abbott (R) over comments he made following yet another mass shooting in Texas where he ducked saying anything about dealing with his state's gun problem.

Monday's "Morning Joe" kicked off with a clip of a survivor — a former police officer — of the Allen, Texas, shooting that took eight lives claiming the problem is not mental health, it's too many guns.

Appearing on MSNBC the day after yet another mass shooting claimed eight lives in Allen, Texas, a former gun industry executive who walked away torched Texas Gov. Greg Abbott for paving the way for high-powered weapons to be readily available to almost anyone who wants one.

Speaking with fill-in host Michael Steele, Ryan Busse said what happened at the mall late Saturday is another example of the insanity that has gripped the country and then singled out the Texas Republican for his part in kowtowing to gun rights extremists.
