Beto O’Rourke was in Aurora, Colorado Thursday evening for a town hall on gun control in the community that has seen more than its share of tragic and horrific shootings. While there, O’Rourke had a couple of headline-grabbing moments, including attacking Senate Minority Leader Chuck Schumer for not pushing more gun control when Democrats controlled the Senate.

“Ask Chuck Schumer what he’s been able to get done,” the Democratic presidential candidate told reporters after a town hall here, responding to Schumer’s recent dismissal of O’Rourke’s call for a mandatory buyback of assault weapons. “We still don’t have background checks. Didn’t have them when he was in the majority, either. So the game that he’s played, the politics that he’s pursued have given us absolutely nothing and have produced a situation where we lose nearly 40,000 of our fellow Americans every year.”

Sooner or later someone’s going to ask Beto why he never authored a bill to ban “assault weapons” and require existing gun owners to hand over their firearms to the federal government in exchange for some cash when he was a member of Congress. In fact, when he was running for Senate in Texas last year, O’Rourke said that while he wanted to ban the sale of AR-15’s, ““If you have an AR-15, keep it. I don’t want to take anyone’s guns away from them.”

That was 2018 Beto. 2019 Beto is like the Will Rogers of gun control; he’s never met an idea he doesn’t like. In fact, after O’Rourke was asked a question from a Columbine survivor Thursday night, Beto says he’s now open to a ban on all semi-automatic firearms.
