http://www.redstate.com/jaycaruso/2016/06/21/democrats-failed-gun-control-amendment-gop-selling-weapons-isis/This is not a quote taken out of context. This is not something implied by another. These were the words of a United States Senator (echoed later by another). Democrat Chris Murphy said this without reservation and said it's something Democrats should continue to do.
Here are his exact words:
[float=left][float=left]
“We’ve got to make this clear, constant case that Republicans have decided to sell weapons to ISIS,” Murphy said, using an alternative term for the Islamic State militant group. “That’s what they’ve decided to do. ISIS has decided that the assault weapon is the new airplane, and Republicans, in refusing to close the terror gap, refusing to pass bans on assault weapons, are allowing these weapons to get in the hands of potential lone-wolf attackers. We’ve got to make this connection and make it in very stark terms.”[/float][/float]
There's no chance at any kind of rebuke from his fellow Democrats on this. In fact, one was openly supporting this:
Elizabeth Warren✔@SenWarren
.@ChrisMurphyCT said it right: The @SenateGOP have decided to sell weapons to ISIS.
