Sen. Ted Cruz (R-TX) was confronted by Mark Stone of Sky News about the astounding number of mass shootings in the United States:
STONE: Is this the moment to reform gun laws?
CRUZ: You know, it’s easy to go to politics…
STONE: But it’s important, it’s at the heart of the issue.
CRUZ: I get that that is where the media likes to go… The proposals from Democrats and the media, inevitably when some violent psychopath murders people…
STONE: A violent psychopath who’s able to get a weapon so easily. An 18-year-old with two AR-15s… But why does this only happen in your country? I really think that’s what many people around the world cannot fathom, why only in America. Why is this American exceptionalism so awful?
Cruz then tried to walk away.
