"You have a chance to do a lot more than that, you have a chance to change the way we talk politics in this country", Rubio said. And I do support the second amendment.

Loesch, a spokeswoman for the National Rifle Association, fielded questions from parents and teachers Wednesday night, including one question from an AP World History teacher at Marjory Stoneman Douglas High School. Marco Rubio, Bill Nelson and Rep. Ted Deutch. "That haul places him sixth among current members of Congress". "It's a weapon of war", he blasted.

Nelson, who's been through all of this before, from previous terrible tragedies, sought to balm and inspire the crowd, declaring, "Your hope gives me hope".

Rubio dodged once again, "I think in the name of 17 people, I can pledge to you that I will support any law that will prevent a killer like this..." You have been so strong. "The fact that you can't stand with everybody in this building and say that, I'm sorry".

Fred Guttenberg, who lost his 14-year-old daughter Jamie in the massacre laid into the Republican, telling him "Your comments this week and that of our president have been pathetically weak", to a huge round of applause. "Look at me and tell me guns were the factor in the hunting of our kids in the school this week".

A woman cries on Wednesday as she visits a makeshift memorial set up in front of Marjory Stoneman Douglas High School.

"I traditionally have not supported looking at magazine clip size, and after this and some of the details I learned about it, I'm reconsidering that position", he said. "That was obvious because they were able to hand the microphone to the next person that was going to speak or ask a question".

'That's what I believe a better answer will be'.

In Tallahassee, Stoneman Douglas students who survived the shooting gathered to demand gun reform.

EA Play to return in 2018
For another year, Electronic Arts has chose to separate itself from the E3 festivities by hosting their own event with EA Play . EA made a decision to go north, last year, to the Hollywood Palladium for an epic outdoor event.

"Banning all semi-auto weapons may have been popular with the audience at CNNTownHall, but it is a position well outside the mainstream".

Deutch said yes. The crowed thundered.

"I'll tell you why", Rubio said.

President Donald Trump, Gov. Rick Scott, Florida House Speaker Richard Corcoran and Florida Senate President Joe Negron declined invitations to the CNN town hall. They aren't willing to give both sides a fair shake.

One student absent from the town hall was Colton Haab. Rubio did not answer, saying only "people buy into my agenda".

With only a few weeks left in Florida's legislative session, it's unlikely the state will see major regulations become law. Anyway, Rubio bravely called that a bad idea.

In her Thursday speech, Loesch claimed she needed private security to leave the town hall because "there were people rushing the stage and screaming 'burn her'".

At this point, the crowd refused to stop yelling after Loesch's expected response, blaming everything on mental illness. Around 100 survivors of last week's shooting were among them.

"[CNN] spoke with a young woman named Kim Corban, who was a college student who was brutally raped in her dorm, and she was under the age of 21", Loesch said during the debate.
