At a Beto O’Rourke campaign event Wednesday in Newtown, Connecticut — home of the tragic 2012 Sandy Hook Elementary School shooting — a “third generation” resident of the city stood up and unloaded on the Democratic presidential candidate for trying to “hijack this town” and “getting guns out of good people’s hands.”
After the El Paso shooting in early August, O’Rourke has largely focused his struggling campaign on pushing for radical gun control policies, including a “gun buyback” program which, he has proudly proclaimed, would result in the confiscation of “assault-style” rifles from law-abiding Americans.
