First.

-- -- take its time we would like to introduce you to a brand new Fox News contributor another why -- conservative gone.

-- in Washington DC former congressman Dennis Kucinich wow what a conversion.

Panicked and I got after it.

You know all of -- -- on Fox News that you know far right crazy people.

Well you know together again that last you know I appreciate -- chance to be -- with you and I've always enjoyed our exchanges and let's go forward OK so you the same left wing -- we know and love from the congress -- -- I wanna I wanna point out that during the presidential campaign.

Fox sagged.

Permit in the -- to the debates there was another network that didn't.

And my message was one that was resonating across the country.

Certainly among Democrats I appreciate the chance to be on your -- sure all right let's talk tactics now I'm not not ideology or anything like that.

The consensus is -- use certain Megyn Kelly say at that.

No way congress is gonna ban assault rivals and it might not even get through -- -- And to back that up you know this Al Franken got -- you know him.

Yeah I know -- guys -- weren't there yeah I think he's a complete weasel and and here's a proof that he is about -- left wing as you get.

But he is the senator from Minnesota.

And he was asked.

-- By the Rochester post bulletin newspaper.

If he supported a ban of assault rifles and he won't answer his spokesperson mark Kimball said quote.

I guess I don't have an answer for you.

So Franken won't say whether he wants the ban assault rivals because he's from Minnesota.

A state was not gonna take kindly to that point of view.

And that's what a lot of these democratic liberal senators that's a position.

Well let me just -- -- and I read what senator Franken said he.

He affirmed his support for.

The Second Amendment Rights of people as matter of fact the DC vs Heller case says people have an individual right to bear arms.

And it connected at the -- -- -- so I don't think senator frank has taken issue with that at all.

Through a -- it's a simple question any guy you want it's all rivals B Danny won't answer period wasn't always like.

Like I I can't say that and I wouldn't say that I would I would say but I would say it and I got the proved exactly up the righteous and newspaper -- them that's Rochester Minnesota and he wouldn't answer.

-- he has that he recognizes that the Supreme Court date people individual got an expression crazy he recognizes that he really believe in this state -- -- I would know popular.

That's -- read the article that's -- -- and so we have to recognize a larger question that's a lot of fear in our society.

He would what is this -- this is reality and I think you'll agree with me and that's.

Many Democrats.

Are caught because the people in their state don't want.

Limitations on certain weapons BA RB and one.

So that's why president Obama's gonna have a hard and it's impossible to get it through the Republican quote controlled house he'll never do that.

And probably not gonna get it through the Democrat told senate so the question is why is even try wise he -- everybody's flown from.

For -- President Obama in that we have a crisis of security in America.

And people don't feel safe and that -- may be that no laws we pass are gonna make Americans feel safer but I will tell you this the president has to act.

And furthermore congress.

Should consider the proposals that he's extending.

I think gonna solve the problem they may or may not did you know as well those ideas came out of the house at the house is never gonna pan to pass any ban on assault rifles and -- -- -- in 2000 bill and in 2000.

No it was 1994.

The house voted 216.

To 214.

To ban assault weapons but -- I'll -- that's nineteen years ago on a whole different climate.

You are right in that -- this time they'll be more Democrats will support it then there were less WS Republicans who support it.

Our young talent including the house is going to be okay and it's all right -- without -- saying -- I want -- that I want a piece of this action.

Don't give it razzle dazzle about 1992.

You can tell me das is an old boy and all battles that might be pro login I'm saying that the house it hopefully we'll consider.

I can't tell you they're gonna pass it I think the Democrats will tend to vote for Republicans will -- To vote mightily against it but that's don't like getting at the underlying issue in America which is why -- we have this level of fair -- the mistrust of government.

Until we start to get underneath this issue.

Where were missing the whole point here and that's a long term -- ill and you got to do look I'm for.

Seen gun control on -- -- I want and I laid out.

And I want everybody to read it if you didn't watch a -- last night.

Read my talking points memo which is -- on billoreilly.com and the Fox News.

Factor website really did because I saw the -- read your talking points memo and there are things -- it that I agreed with but I but I will say.

That we can be talking about gun legislation from not a kingdom come.

All the gun -- past may not really reduce significantly the level of violence in our society actually look.

Mexico Mexico has very -- touchdown and one gun laws don't did NIC how much lower marine in jail for -- an antique shotgun.

Very tough 36000.

Dead people through the gun so you know it isn't gonna work I know it's gonna work I gotta -- -- Bill we'll talk again you know we're glad John Borg congressman.

And we appreciate you being in can.
