Former VP Mike Pence called for the execution of mass shooters 'in months not years' as a solution to gun violence at the NRA's annual leadership summit today.
INDIANAPOLIS — Former Vice President Mike Pence called for the quick execution of mass shooters as a solution to gun violence at the National Rifle Association’s annual leadership summit in Indianapolis Friday.
“Ignoring the motivations of the trans activist who killed three children and three adults at that Christian school in Nashville, and the ‘mental health challenges’ of the man who killed five people and injured eight others in Louisville, President Biden and the Democrats have returned to the same tired arguments about gun control and confiscation,” Pence said.
Other presidential contenders, including Florida Gov. Ron DeSantis, former U.N. Ambassador Nikki Haley and Sen. Tim Scott of South Carolina, sent in video messages. Guy Relford, a prominent Indiana talk show radio host and 2nd Amendment attorney sitting in the front row, said he’s leaning toward DeSantis in the primary but found his decision to send a video message “disappointing.”
