S. This of course thank you for joining us you know a gun control laws in nevada they are among the most permissive in the country is this more of a state issue as opposed to a federal.

Are ops are trafficked across state lines and. The deeds to be some federal grip on this obama try these attempts to fill some of the gaps in the its to chip background check system that you get already at the straits policy change is now the u. K. Where you are tightened its Gun Legislation after two major massacres in the one nine hundred ninety s. One were sixteen children were gunned down in the scottish town of dunblane why do you think that there hasnt been this turning point in the u. S. I think it goes back to the american constitution the culture the idea the america has has a right to go puts through the Second Amendment but brought up today thats thats to do with the powerful four billion Strong NationalRifle Association which is a very tight grip on the Republican Party in particular that along side got it District Attorney got a district marketing and i think that the whole hollywood cowboy culture has crew created a particular kind of bites that grips a particular demographic of the american masculinity and they are worried that if they give up their guns the in the last this is all to the urgency they will be at risk you mentioned some republican lawmakers are being influenced by those sentiments some of them are actually pushing to loosen restrictions on gun ownership with further legislation could we really see that happen i think weve seen it happen we saw it happen up there obama the idea that people take firearms it to National Parks the idea that an abbreviated this campuss that it hit the to be gun free zones would be considered to to be restored to allow students to carry guns on this campus as texas so that and other real pressure is it a number of states people to be allowed to carry their guns openly about solty states licensed other citizens to carry concealed weapon selves lets take that up or of a number of hard line.

Well they just passed that resolution with overwhelming majority so this is it more reflects the state of play at the moment that it shows you that the way its been going up until now cannot continue if you want some kind of deal at the end because the European Parliament is important in this they will get to say yea or nay to a possible deal at the end to show their dissatisfaction in such a strong way just so as you well basically what a mess this whole negotiation process is at the moment why is it such a mess max that what are the differences that are getting in the way and why have a negotiator has been able to resolve that. Well of course youll get a different perspective from the u. K. Itself that here on the continent everybody is pretty clear that the u. K. Has not been clear in its goals it has not been clear in what how its supposed to address those three important points for the e. U. Meaning the border with Northern Ireland and ireland the braggs of bill and also the rights of e. U. Citizens in the u. K.
