According to <a href=\"https:\/\/www.msn.com\/en-us\/news\/us\/trump-pentagon-pick-says-its-insane-for-civilians-to-own-semi-automatic-weapons\/ar-BBEI114?li=BBmkt5R&#038;ocid=ientp\">MSN<\/a>, he told the Senate Armed Service committee; <\/p>\n<blockquote><p>\u201cI may get in trouble with other members of the committee just say how insane it is that in the United States of America a civilian can go out and buy a semi-automatic like an AR-15, which apparently was the weapon that was used [in the Sutherland Springs, Texas shooting],\u201d Winslow said. \u201cI think that&#8217;s an issue not as much for this committee, but elsewhere.\u201d<\/p><\/blockquote>\n<p>The question from Senator. Jeanne Shaheen, (D-NH) was in regards to the Texas shooter&#8217;s domestic violence conviction and whether he deserved a Bad Conduct or Dishonorable discharge. Luckily, Winslow&#8217;s remarks are about a subject clearly outside his area of responsibility in his new job. But then, Shaheen&#8217;s question was just her attempt to appear as if she&#8217;s paying attention to the news.<\/p>\n<p>Of course, Winslow is a retired Air Force colonel, you know, like other Air Force colonels who are squishy on guns while guns are in the news. Like I said yesterday, I don&#8217;t pay any attention to fobbits&#8217; opinions on second amendment issues. As long as Winslow doesn&#8217;t have any real policy-making responsibilities on who gets to own what guns, I&#8217;m not going to get real exercised about it.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Several people have sent us links regarding Dean Winslow&#8217;s comments during his confirmation hearing for his &hellip; <a title=\"Dean Winslow and &#8220;insane&#8221; gun ownership\" class=\"hm-read-more\" href=\"https:\/\/www.azuse.cloud\/?p=75843\"><span class=\"screen-reader-text\">Dean Winslow and &#8220;insane&#8221; gun ownership<\/span>Read more<\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":1,"featured_media":0,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[82],"tags":[],"class_list":["post-75843","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","hentry","category-gun-grabbing-fascists"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.azuse.cloud\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts\/75843","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.azuse.cloud\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.azuse.cloud\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.azuse.cloud\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/users\/1"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.azuse.cloud\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fcomments&post=75843"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/www.azuse.cloud\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts\/75843\/revisions"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.azuse.cloud\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fmedia&parent=75843"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.azuse.cloud\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fcategories&post=75843"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.azuse.cloud\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Ftags&post=75843"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
