Democrats' gun control proposals won't stop crime, will crush Americans' rights: Massie

Democrats' gun control measures won't do anything to prevent school shootings, but they will likely succeed in restricting the constitutional rights of law-abiding citizens, Rep. Thomas Massie, R-Ky., said Thursday on "The Ingraham Angle."

LAURA INGRAHAM: Congressman, which part of tonight's speech did you find most offensive? 

REP. THOMAS MASSIE: Basically, all of it. I mean, the red flag laws are doing away with due process in this country. 

We had a hearing today that lasted 10 hours, wherein the Democrats in the House are going to put a smorgasbord of things that don't work in front of senators in the Senate and try to get some of the weak-kneed Republicans to bite on that. 

What was clear today in our hearing, and I think also in Joe Biden's speech, is that they're not serious about ending school shootings, but they are serious about taking away [firearms].

INGRAHAM: What… anti-gun measures would perhaps pass in the Senate if you had to predict right now — the "raising the age" for ARs?
