Dem Ritchie Torres Calls For National Ban On 'Weapons Of War' Minutes After NYC Skyscraper Shooting

Posted • July 29, 2025: As unarmed victims were fatally shot and many frightened unarmed people cowered within barricaded rooms in a New York City building, Democrats were already scheming for ways to make future victims stay unarmed. Instead of blaming the man with the gun, they blamed the weapon itself. The killings reinvigorated the Democrat Party’s thirst to disarm law-abiding Americans. It took Democrat Ritchie Torres mere minutes to turn the tragedy into a national call to ban guns ('weapons of war') and stomp on the Second Amendment rights of all Americans. Here he is on CNN. It took about five minutes for Democrats to call for banning guns: Torres: "What we desperately need is a national ban on military style weapons." —— Democrats are always looking for a tragedy to exploit in their unending quest to abolish the Second Amendment. Like the shooter, the party also prefers unarmed victims. A Democrat being a hyperbolic liar? That’s always a treat.

‘Journalists’ and their fellow Democrats are trying to shape the narrative. CNN failed miserably when they claimed the shooter was likely white, then it turned out to be a black guy. Now they’re starting another. Now they are playing up that he has some kind of mental health history…early narrative shaping up: “How is a mentally unstable person like this able to get a weapon of war?" —— Crazed criminals don’t give a damn about national bans! All of New York’s strict gun laws did nothing to stop the shooter, either. Isn't the heart of NYC a "gun free zone?" Uh… maybe Shane Tamura can't read? https://pbs.twimg.com/media/Gw_X8KOWsAIO9RZ?format=jpg&name=medium —— Someone needs to tell him we already have a law on the books regarding murder and attempted murder. It’s almost as if criminals ignore gun laws or something, and that ‘gun free zones’ are a big draw for them since they have their pick of unarmed victims. (…)
