Couldn't find a link, just aired on Fox News.

 

Mark Mattioli, 42 year old father of 6 year old James Mattioli testifies in Hartford, CT against new laws. Was great, logical testimony from a man who lost his son 6 weeks ago, talking of individual responsibility, mental health and how have the gu laws in Chicago helped with 500 killed last year.

 

Hopefully the video will be out there soon.

Wow... I don't think I could watch that without trying not to get upset.

You probably should have headed this, "...testifies AGAINST gun control." But good to hear that someone involved is thinking rationally.

Brave man who speaks the truth!

So he's saying the rules should be simple, but be better enforced?

To be honest, I don't know how I would have reacted if this happened to me. He deserved the standing ovation he received if he was pro gun or not. Let's hope that others follow him.

If he can think objectively, without emotion on the subject, then our politicians have no excuse and should cease legislating on emotion.

Nonsense

Nonsense

 

You think policticians should write laws based on emotion?

I think he is implying that politicians can't help but base laws on emotion.

More like take advantage of other people's emotions to force their agenda. Politicians have no emotion.

Exactly. They use an appeal to emotion to push an agenda.

yup manipulating the masses into thinking its what "we" want that they are fighting for...and not some sick bs agenda that wont be realized until its too late

This is it ^^^^^

I haven't heard a peep about this story on CNN nor on the 10 o'clock news this evening. They were still talking about that pro gun control rally in DC.

this part is the best: Families of victims killed at Newtown's Sandy Hook Elementary School and others — including some state and town elected officials — called for a ban on assault weapons and high-magazine ammunition clips.

 

 

State Sen. Beth Bye, D-West Hartford, and state Rep. Bob Godfrey, D-Danbury, said last month that they would introduce several proposals to limit access to high-capacity weapons, assault weapons and ammunition. The proposals include banning the sale and possession of any rifle, shotgun or pistol magazine with a capacity of more than 10 rounds and a 50% sales tax on the sale of ammunition and firearms magazines.

 

a psychotic killer's mind: "hmm i was gonna go on a shooting rampage due to my psychological malfunctioning, but I COULDN'T AFFORD THE AMMO!

So i did a little searching for the video, the link posted didn't take me anywhere...isn't it weird that one of the parents of a child killed in Newtown comes out and speaks and MAKES SENSE and the video can't be found anywhere? How about the fact that the little blurb in the article with his name doesn't mention everything he said which contrasted what other parents were saying?? If anyone finds a link to the video please post it because I want to watch this.

 

Nevermind, here it is...sorry

Wow so much common sense, no wonder I haven't seen it on the MSM. I think it would make their heads explode!

His English isn't the greatest but he understands guns aren't the issue.

 

i think its a parenting issue

i agree with him 100%

he makes complete sense, which is why you'll never see this on any other news station

and i agree that the major issue is parenting

CNN was sure to play a clip from Neil Heslin today though. The clip they played starts at 1:21 in this video:
