Mike Huckabee jumps the shark, a walrus and a blue whale




Published on Oct 5, 2015

Mike Huckabee went on CNN recently to discuss the shooting at Umpqua Community College in Oregon. During the appearance Huckabee was asked what he believes is the main cause of all these mass shootings throughout the country. Cenk Uygur and Ana Kasparian of The Young Turks discuss Huckabee's comments.

Watch the full segment here: http://www.cnn.com/2015/10/05/politics/mike-huckabee-shootings-sin-and-evil/

"Former Arkansas Gov. Mike Huckabee says the recent spate of mass shootings aren't because of access to guns, but because of "sin and evil" in the world.

The GOP presidential candidate, a former pastor, said there were "warning signals" about the shooter at Oregon's Umpqua Community College who killed nine people and himself last week, including him being "a loner," but no one reported them.

"We have not so much a gun problem; we have a problem with sin and evil. This is an evil thing, when people kill another person," Huckabee said. "Whether it's a pressure cooker or whether it's a gun, we're dealing with people who are either deranged or they're very focused because they want to kill people in the name of terrorism."*

Guns are helpful and useful in our daily lives. Pressure cookers are made to kill people...
