Stephen Anderson Explodes To Pro- Guns: "How many more kids will die before something is done?"

Stephen Anderson has been one of the most vocal people in the past few months calling for stricter gun control laws in the United States, and has clashed a number of times with pro gun guests. Friday night Anderson seemed to have been fed up  the pro-gun arguments. He was very vocal on his show last night and demanded to know what, after shootings at a movie theater and a temple and an elementary school all in the same year, will finally get the pro-guns crowd to accept that the U.S. needs more gun control laws.

Anderson asked guest Sean Forsyth exactly why a kindergarten teacher needed to buy three guns, in her house, especially when she had a “clearly deranged son” in the house. Forsyth tried to explain the reasoning he felt behind it, but was interupted by Anderson. "At what point do people say this is enough?"

As the two talked, they seemed to agree that something needs to be done. Anderson who has heard all the arguments, "If the kids were armed, this would have never happened."

This set off Anderson again, and said that he’s getting tired of having to hear the same arguments every time there’s a mass shooting, arguing that more guns would lead to more bullets and more people getting killed. After a bit of heated debate, Forsyth interjected to point out every other industrialized nation has reasonable gun control laws and they all have significantly fewer deaths by gun violence than the United States.

"Stop telling me the answer is more guns... how many more kids have to die before something is done about this?"
 

Anderson closed the segment by making it clear people should not be afraid to speak out, and told Forsyth that there will be a gun debate on his Sunday show and to join him then.
