Mark Kelly on Gun Free Zones and the loopholes that allow guns everywhere.

Astronaut Mark Kelly, the husband of former Congresswoman Gabby Giffords, knows a thing or two about gun violence and mass shootings. Since Giffords was shot in 2011, both she and Kelly have been speaking out about the American problem with gun violence. They have formed “Americans For Responsible Solutions” and speak out about our obsession with guns.

On October 4, Kelly sat down with CNN’s Jake Tapper to talk gun violence, and what can and should be done about it. The interview is five minutes of awesome common sense.

Kelly starts by observing that our political leaders need to do something about what he says are loopholes in gun laws, that he believes are partly to blame for the fact that America has many more mass shootings than do other countries. He says that he thinks it is “sad” that gun laws have become a political issue, and that our leaders need to fix that problem. Of course, when your politics is run on money, and your campaign coffers are being stuffed by the NRA and gun manufacturers, it’s hard to get the political will to do something about guns. It’s a slightly different version of the Upton Sinclair quote, “It is difficult to get a man to understand something, when his salary depends on his not understanding it.”
