Louisiana Governor Bobby Jindal addresses the media during a news conference at the Grand 16 Theatre in Lafayette, La., July 24. (Paul Kieu, The Daily Advertiser via The Associated Press)
Following last week’s shooting in Lafayette, Louisiana Gov. Bobby Jindal and Ted Nugent said that now is not the time to talk about gun control measures.
This seems to be the common response following a shooting by those opposed to gun safety measures and was also heard following the Charleston shootings. My question to them is: When is the proper time to discuss this matter?
All their response does is postpone action on the implementation of measures that may save lives.
