I don't like either one. Lieberman was crooked as hell and Murphy has been exploiting Sandy Hook to stay relevant while not really addressing the issue correctly or accomplishing much. Sure guns played a role in it, but ultimately it was the mental state of the shooter that was what brought it about. There is an obvious twisted psychological state that would make you go to a school you haven't attended in a number of years and shoot the place up. He must have had some underlying trauma there and probably didn't have any of the mental health care he needed for much of his life. Murphy's number one goal should be to improve mental health care nationwide and in schools above all else. I'm not even a proponent of guns and don't own any, but can clearly see the propaganda and lack of firearm knowledge by him and a lot of his fellow politicians makes his actions questionable as to what he really wants to accomplish other than to stay relevant while parading around the event and using the families.
