This is what they really think of us. The unstated corollary is that society would be better off if such people did not exist. That experiment has been conducted in several well-known socialist utopian "experiments".
These comments came during a Judiciary Committee hearing re the proposed Alabama "constitutional carry" bill.
iI'd love to see her cite her source for “Well, it’s just fact,”... I call bullshit... but what else is new? Fuck these people.

The fireworks started when the National Rifle Association’s (NRA) Todd Adkins was speaking in favor of SB 4. Afterward, State Sen. Vivian Davis Figures (D-Mobile) used her opportunity to ask questions of Adkins to launch into a diatribe that had nothing to do with the bill at hand, or any bill that has been filed in the Alabama legislature.
“[W]hy would you want to do certain things that really put people at greater risk?” Figures asked, not pausing for an answer.
She said, “You even want to repeal a part of the law that’s in place now about carrying weapons into a demonstration, where everyone knows that the emotions are high … and we also know Congresswoman (Gabby) Giffords (of Arizona) was actually shot during that time, during a demonstration. Why would you want to take away the presumption of intent? That somebody could just shoot someone else and not even have intent, to repeal that. I really don’t understand it. I’ve always gotten an ‘F’ from the National Rifle Association and that’s a proud ‘F’ that I receive… I just don’t understand the mentality of what you guys or – or what you guys continue to push to do. Particularly, with all the gun violence that is happening, to allow a person to be able to get a gun who has mental problems – to me that says the person who’s pushing that has some mental problems. They don’t understand why people with mental issues shouldn’t have a weapon.”
State Sen. Cam Ward (R-Alabaster), the chairman of the committee, then kindly warned her, “Let’s keep it close now, Senator.”
“
Well, it’s just fact,” Figures responded, then saying, “I didn’t call any names.”
