Greg Abbott: “Both of these individuals [Sandy Hook and Parkland shooters]…”

“Once again, I will refer you to some prior school shootings, such as Sandy Hook or such as Parkland in Florida. Both of these individuals [Sandy Hook and Parkland shooters] were mentally unfit to have a gun, and they had demonstrated that in fitness. And in fact, there were multiple medical diagnoses of the shooter in Sandy Hook. They should have disqualified that person from being able to have access to a gun.” (06:13–06:21)
