attracted to these things. it s not because they can have overcapacity, whatever term you want to use, magazines. but i say that because the majority of mass shootings in this country are actually carried out with handguns. the idea that they are only attracted to semiautomatic rifles is not true, and this is the most popular firearm in america. when you have 50 million people who own an ar-15 greg: you re saying i am right? katie: yes, you re correct. [laughs] jesse: up next, a picture says 1,000 words. find out why hillary clinton was pretending to be president. plus, it s getting wild in here for greg s birthday. look at that. we have a new guest onset and more. animals are great. alive in addition, not. i m your cat. ever since you brought me home, that day. i ve been plotting to destroy you. sizing you up. calculating your every move. you think this is love? this is a billion years of tiger dna just ready to pounce.
somebody, what if he took you sy if they got rid of the military sterilizations that they attach to these rifles was marked as greg said, exactly the same as a hunting rifle. he juan: the key here is the high capacity. when you make it possible to buy high-capacity magazines that that fit onto these guns. then people think this opens it up to be far more jesse: what is high-capacity? juan: i m not an expert but jesse: you want them to load each round? juan: yes. let me finish for a second. it s sad to say, most of the murderers that we see on the streets of big cities which is where most of this happen, happen with handguns. but what you see with these weapons that people are very turned off by is that you can have high capacity and keep firing, as we saw in vegas, as we saw in el paso. but i will say that i just think right now the polls are overwhelming. 89% of americans, 8 out of 10
katie: i don t understand cars very much. greg: here is my theory. there is an argument when you talk about assault rifles, they are no different than hunting rifles. so what is the difference customer cosmetics. there something about the cosmetics that attracts a certain person versus a different person. the hunter doesn t pose in front of the mirror. the guy with all the accoutrements does. the difference between the driver of a basic jetta and the driver who fancies it up with spoilers. one is a responsible driver and the other advertises his own recklessness. if we don t want to touch the powerful nature of a gun, why can t we address the cosmetic appeal, which tends to attract a certain kind of guy. a white, lonely male who poses and fantasizes in front of a mirror. this is merely a suggestion. i m pro-second amendment, i m not talking about banning guns. if the cosmetic appeal is one of these elements that attracts

the confident space that he can still get through this. of course, there were plenty of republicans who raised concerns about kavanaugh, from people on sort of the breitbart, far right anti-immigration space, to folks who parsed some of the comments he made about abortion issues and assessed that he wasn t conservative enough on that question. without a doubt, kavanaugh had his detractors, speaking quite broadly, he generally speaking had it overwhelming support from republicans. or at least was endorsed as totally acceptable. i just spoke to senator lindsey graham who said the timing of this was very suspicious and you have to prove to me that he s not the guy he says he is. and sam stein, greg go, ahead. that s sort of the thing that sticks with me. that is really going to be, a contest of character. it s a character battle. and it s not just the guy he says he is. it s also the guy that many
