Beto O’Rourke (D) backed away from his past assertions that assault weapons should be taken from gun owners, The Hill reports.
Said O’Rourke: “I’m not interested in taking anything from anyone.”
He added: “What I want to make sure that we do is defend the Second Amendment. I want to make sure that we protect our fellow Texans far better than we’re doing right now. And that we listen to law enforcement, which Greg Abbott refused to do.”
Unfortunately for O’Rourke, his comment is on video: “Hell yes, we are coming to take your AR-15, your AK-47.“
