Charleston, SC Mayor: Mike Huckabee Views On Concealed Carry Are ‘Insane,’ ‘Nutty’ and ‘Crazy’
Wednesday on “The Alan Colmes Show,” Alan spoke with Joseph Riley, who has been the mayor of Charleston, SC for four decades and has been helping the community recover from the devastating shooting in a church that left nine people dead. Mayor Riley discussed with Alan his reaction to the debate over the Confederate flag, his take on gun control and his thoughts on Presidential candidate Mike Huckabee’s claim that concealed carry permits could have prevented people from being killed:
RILEY: I’m very hopeful that the legislature will take the necessary action to have the Confederate battle flag moved from the flagpole in front of the state Capital to a museum where it should be. I’m confident that’s going to happen. The will is there in the state and this horrible event by this unbelievably hateful and bigoted man I think will be the sad event that will create action at this time. COLMES: Isn’t that the irony that somebody that wanted to start a race war, we’ve now had the result of, kind of an opposite effect taking place. RILEY: He was trying to spread hate, and rather what he did was enhance love.
