Firstly, my condolences to the families who have lost loved ones, friends and relatives.”he said.
“This goes back to what I already said about guns in America. It’s a longer conversation, but we’re still stuck in the same story, the same conversation, every time something like this occurs, and it persists. Having access to a weapon, the ability to perform such acts over and over again without any change is literally ridiculous.”added James.
