Pundits on MSNBC, including a member of the Biden administration, responded to Wednesday’s San Jose mass shooting by demanding that Congress pass harsh new gun control laws — even though the killing took place inside a gun-free zone.

At 6:34 a.m. Pacific time, a gunman killed eight people during a union meeting inside the Valley Transportation Authority’s light rail station in San Jose, California. The gunman has been identified in multiple reports as Samuel J. Cassidy, a 57-year-old VTA employee. He was also killed.
