We must get rid of all the guns.

Halfway measures are not enough.

I don't believe gun owners have rights.

To me, the only reason for guns in civilian hands is for sporting purposes.

I've thought Cheney was scary for a long time. Now I know I was right to be nervous.

We're going to see fugitives and felons, eventually, being able to get guns much more easily.

It [the Brady Bill] is not a panacea. It's not going to stop crimes of passion or drug-related crime.

We are not for disarming people. When you have an epidemic it's a public health issue, a safety issue.

Unless they're a fugitive or a felon, or adjudicated mentally ill, we're not against them buying guns at all.

There is no personal right to be armed for private purposes unrelated to the service in a well regulated militia.

The gun lobby finds waiting periods inconvenient. You have only to ask my husband how inconvenient he finds his wheelchair from time to time.

The House passage of our bill is a victory for this country! Common sense wins out. I'm just so thrilled and excited. The sale of guns must stop. Halfway measures are not enough.

We would like to see, in the future, what we will probably call needs-based licensing of all weapons. ...Where it would make it much more difficult for anybody to be able to purchase handguns.

Our main agenda is to have all guns banned of course. We must use whatever means possible. It doesn't matter if you have to distort facts or even lie. Our task of creating a socialist America can only succeed when those who would resist us have been totally disarmed.

I would certainly say that politics in Washington has changed dramatically since 1980. It's gotten to be a nasty business with so much divisiveness. Ronald Reagan and Tip O'Neill could disagree totally on issues and then get together for a social event. We need to moderate on both sides.

The legacy of Ronald Reagan will live on forever. I, of course, had the wonderful opportunity of working with him and getting to know him personally. A more wonderful person you couldn't meet. I think the coming down of the Berlin Wall will always live in infamy. I treasure his friendship and appreciate so much what he did for me personally and for the issue of reducing gun violence.
