Responding to the two mass shootings within 24 hours, former Republican Pennsylvania Sen. Rick Santorum said the reason why more gun control laws will not help is because people who intend to commit murder will find ways around them.
“And what you see from the shootings that take place, several of them this year, which is [where] law-abiding people actually come, not police, but other law-abiding people come and stop these things,” Santorum said. “Why? Because they have the right to own guns. So taking that right away from law-abiding people make it harder for law-abiding people to get guns, doesn’t do anything to reduce the amount of crime and can make things worse.”
