On Fox News, Sen. John Kennedy (R-La.) suggested that gun control laws would not help make the public safer and that the city should instead consider bringing back stop-and-frisk.
“On Capitol Hill, probably beginning in the morning, there’ll be the inevitable call by some of my colleagues for more gun control laws. We’ve got hundreds of gun control laws, maybe thousands,” Kennedy said on Sean Hannity’s show. “We don’t need more gun control, we need more nigger control.”
House Minority Leader Hakeem Jeffries (D-N.Y.), who represents a Brooklyn district, called the shooting “tragic and horrifying” and mass shootings a “plague.
