On Wednesday, CNN aired a town hall on the Florida school shooting with Sens. Marco Rubio, R-Fla., and Bill Nelson, D-Fla.; other guests included the National Rifle Association spokeswoman Dana Loesch and Broward County Sheriff Scott Israel. Students and parents asked questions about gun control and school safety in response to the Parkland shooting. But instead of a robust debate about guns, how the shooting happened, or how to prevent it, there was a show of partisanship in favor of gun control.
