DNC platform exec: ‘Nobody should have a gun’

Published



A Democratic National Committee policy platform officer said at a key meeting Wednesday that nobody should own a gun.

DNC Platform Committee Member Bonnie Schaefer of Florida, reacting to testimony from Mothers Demand Action For Gun Sense In America, said, “I do believe that you’re absolutely correct – not just keeping the guns out of mentally ill people and criminals, but I really don’t personally think anyone should have a gun. I mean, that’s just my own philosophy. Nothing is ever solved when you have a gun in your hand except the worst possible scenario.”
